pages in device mapping refcounts are 1-based, instead
of 0-based. If refcount 1, means it can be freed.
This logic is not set for Generic memory type. Therefore,
its release is threated as a normal page, instead of
the callback device driver release it.
So we really need to stop this magic one off refcount. We had a WIP
patchset to do that, and we need to finish that off instad of piling on
more hacks.
Sure. I'll be happy to help with that, if I can.
Thanks,
