+       if (((region_intersects_ram(base_addr, size) != REGION_INTERSECTS) &&
+            (region_intersects_pmem(base_addr, size) != REGION_INTERSECTS)) ||

                return -EINVAL;

The 3rd condition check makes sure that the param2 mask is the page size or less.  So, I
think we are OK on this.
