The vmalloc comment also looks wrong BTW - it's extra kmalloc GFP_KERNEL memory you're asking for here. I'd like to understand why you need to call those functions and how it integrates with the rest of what you're doing: do you have calls to other dm functions in other patches? Or is this particular change optional, but you have test results showing it to be desirable or necessary in certain cases, maybe indicating a shortcoming within the dm-io code which should be addressed instead?
