Well, to me the "old" API looks like a new one too, since it's that
"struct page_range_apply" thing.

But I can appreciate that it makes for minimal patch to avoid
conflicts with other patches. It just doesn't look very sensible
stand-alone afaik.

I might be missing something.

But that last patch is more of a detail - it wouldn't even exist if it
wasn't for the earlier mm patches, and those are the ones that make me
go more than "Whaa?" so it's not like this is really all that big of
an issue. More of just a note I made while looking through the mm
parts.
