This is wrong - is_interesting() check must happen before output as
the `*end = addr` means the range should be skipped, but return 0
requests continuing of the walk.

Why is it needed? If `end == start + HPAGE_SIZE` then we're handling a
full hugepage anyway.

Why moving the variable declarations out of the loop?

Ah, this indeed was a bug. Nit:

if (next == addr) { if (!ret) continue; break; }

BTW, We should we keep the tag in args writeback().
