Hi Alistair,
Not sure if this suggestion is a replacement for the first or the second
condition in the snip code above. We know device coherent type will not
be set with devmap. So we could do the following:
if ((flags & FOLL_LRU) && page && is_zone_device_page(page))
- page = NULL;
+ goto no_page;
