BTW, Coverity is complaining about:

7220                return -ENOMEM;

Wrong sizeof argument (SIZEOF_MISMATCH)

suspicious_sizeof: Passing argument nr * 8UL /* sizeof
(data->tags[0][0]) */ to function io_alloc_page_table and then casting
the return value to u64 ** is suspicious.

7221        data->tags = (u64 **)io_alloc_page_table(nr *
sizeof(data->tags[0][0]));

Not sure if that's a false positive or not. This kind of indirection
makes my brain melt.
