  kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
the mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.

With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.

Since its use in fs/ufs is safe everywhere, it should be preferred.

Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in fs/ufs. kunmap_local()
requires the mapping address, so return that address from ufs_get_page()
to be used in ufs_put_page().

	Er...  Building the patched tree is occasionally useful.
Here kaddr is obviously uninitialized and compiler would've
probably caught that.

	And return value of kmap_local_page() is lost, which
is related to the previous issue ;-)

Hell, no.  Callers expect the pointer to the first byte of
your page.  What it should return is kaddr.

That can't be right.  Places like
        if (err)
		goto out_unlock;
do not expect err to be lost.  You end up returning 0 now.  Something strange
happened here (in the previous commit, perhaps?)

I don't yet know. Maybe that it is related to a copy-paste error or something 
like that...

As said, I'll send next version ASAP.

Again thanks for your kind help,

Warning is right, suggestion - worse than useless...
