The aim of the series is make FS DAX and other ZONE_DEVICE pages look
like other pages, at least with regards to the way they are refcounted.

At the moment they are not refcounted - instead their refcounts are
basically statically initialised to one and there are all these special
cases and functions requiring magic PTE bits (pXX_devmap) to do the
special DAX reference counting. This then adds some cruft to manage
pgmap references and to catch the 2->1 page refcount transition. All
this just goes away if we manage the page references the same as other
pages (and indeed we already manage DEVICE_PRIVATE and COHERENT pages
the same as normal pages).

So I think to make this work we at least need the mapcounts.

Yep, that's all we support.

I don't have any plans to. This is purely focussed on refcounting pages
"like normal" so we can get rid of all the DAX special casing.

Indeed, although Christoph has asked repeatedly ([1], [2] and likely
others) that this gets fixed and I finally got sick of it coming up
everytime I need to touch something with ZONE_DEVICE pages :)

Also it removes the need for people to understand the special DAX page
recounting scheme and ends up removing a bunch of cruft as a bonus:

 59 files changed, 485 insertions(+), 869 deletions(-)

And that's before I clean up all the pgmap reference handling. It also
removes the pXX_trans_huge and pXX_leaf distinction. So we managed, but
things could be better IMHO.

Ok. I'm keen to get this series finished and I don't quite get the
connection here, what needs to change there?
