I think a similar problem exists for device private fault handling as well and
it has been on my list of things to fix for a while. I think the solution is to
call try_get_page(), except it doesn't work with device pages due to the whole
refcount thing. That issue is blocking a fair bit of work now so I've started
looking into it.
Where is this?
 
Nothing posted yet. I've been going through the mailing list and the old
thread[1] to get an understanding of what is left to do. If you have any
suggestions they would be welcome.
