Of course that probably doesn't help you, because then the call would be
vmf_insert_page_pmd() rather than a raw pfn, but as you point out there
might be some common code we could share.

Do you have the PoC posted anywhere so I can get an understanding of how
this might be used?

Yeah, that's a good observation. I think it was just a quirk of how I
was developing this and also not caring about the PFN case so I'll see
what that looks like.
