Just realized I skipped over this point in my other response.

So, there are 28 "BUG_ON" calls in mm/gup.c, only 3 of which are 
BUILD_BUG_ON().

Maybe a single patch that covers all 25 at once is the way to go, I'm
thinking. And of course, any patch that touches any of those lines
should convert to a WARN* variant--whichever lands first.


thanks,
