Most notably, for device memory we can hopefully soon stop setting
it PG_reserved

I am busy as hell so I am not likely to look at specific patche this
week. But could you be more specific why we need to get rid of other
PG_reserved users before we can do so for device memory?


No worries, this has time.

For device memory, nothing should really be needed. I am only collecting
and docuumenting users and this is one user soon to go (eventually) :)

I am all for removing relicts because they just confuse people but I
fail to see any relation here.


It's really only "why is this patch set not bigger", nothing related to
device memory actually :)
