Sorry for delay with working on this patch. Now I am investigating
the issue (Kernel Bug: unable to handle kernel paging request) that it
was reported by Jérôme Poulin <jeromepoulin@xxxxxxxxx>. I suspect that
the reported issue is related to this patch. So, I feel a necessity to
investigate the issue more deeply before continuation to work on this
patch.

With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
