Why does the linux kernel?

[Ralph Blach]

A few days ago I posted an append to this forum asking to what error a
segmentation fault refered.
I finally discovered my problem in my kernel.  I was marking all user
pages as user/read/write.
Why does the linux kernel care if some pages are marked read only and
others are marked read/write.

Thanks in advance.
