This looks good to me.  I like the way you provide the same args
to do_invalidatepage_range() as to zero_user_segment():

		zero_user_segment(page, partial_start, top);
		if (page_has_private(page))
			do_invalidatepage_range(page, partial_start, top);

Unfortunately, that is not what patches 01-05 are expecting...
