Thanks Alex, couple of comments on this:
1. vm_normal_page() can return NULL so you need to add a check for
page == NULL otherwise the call to is_zone_device_page(NULL) will crash.
2. The check for a coherent device page is too indirect. Being explicit and
using is_zone_device_coherent_page() instead would make it more direct and
obvious, particularly for developers who may not immediately realise that
device-private pages should never have pte_present() entries.
