Well, it does help to give the expression a name :)

Okay, I find this as understandable and it is less cluttered. I think
the comment is good enough now.

Can we concur on this then:

 static unsigned int
 hmm_range_need_fault(const struct hmm_vma_walk *hmm_vma_walk,
 		     const uint64_t *pfns, unsigned long npages,
 		     uint64_t cpu_flags)
 {
+	struct hmm_range *range = hmm_vma_walk->range;
 	unsigned int required_fault = 0;
 	unsigned long i;
 
-	if (hmm_vma_walk->flags & HMM_FAULT_SNAPSHOT)
+	/*
+	 * If the default flags do not request to fault pages, and the mask does
+	 * not allow for individual pages to be faulted, then
+	 * hmm_pte_need_fault() will always return 0.
+	 */
+	if (!((range->default_flags | range->pfn_flags_mask) &
+	      range->flags[HMM_PFN_VALID]))
 		return 0;

I think everything else is sorted now, so if yes I'll send this as v3.

Thanks,
Jason
