Do you care about SIGBUS behaviour or what?I'm looking to preserve the same behaviour we see with PTE mappings. I mean, it's supposed to be _transparent_ huge pages, right?
Speaking of which ... we also need to check if the PMD is entirely within the VMA. So, this is needed:

I'll fold that into the next round of patches. -- Matthew Wilcox Intel Open Source Technology Centre "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours. We can't possibly take such a retrograde step."
