It isn't the fault of only this patch, but I think breaking the loop without incrementing
dst_pte(and src_pte) would be bad behavior because we do unmap_pte(dst_pte - 1) later.
(current copy_pte_range() already does it though... and this is only problematic
when we break the first loop, IIUC.)

I've searched other places where we break a similar loop and do pte_unmap(pte - 1).
Current copy_pte_range() and apply_to_pte_range() has the same problem.

How about a patch like this ?
===
From: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp>

There are some places where we do like:

	pte = pte_map();
	do {
		(do break in some conditions)
	} while (pte++, ...);
	pte_unmap(pte - 1);

But if the loop breaks at the first loop, pte_unmap() unmaps invalid pte.

This patch is a fix for this problem.
