If you go for this make it more straight forward by having the
normal path in the main flow:

	if (is_devdax_page(page) || is_fsdax_page(page))
		return NULL;
	return page;

+static inline struct page *vm_normal_gfp_pte(struct vm_area_struct *vma,

+	struct page *page = vm_normal_page(vma, addr, pte);

Same here.
