Any particular reason for the forward declaration? Maybe move
get_user_pages_remote() down?
Yes, that's exactly why: I was thinking it would be cleaner to put in the
forward declaration, rather than moving code blocks, but either way seems
reasonable. I'll go ahead and move the code blocks and delete the forward
declaration, now that someone has weighed in in favor of that.
