As gcc (9.5.0) keeps on calculating "paddr + nr * PAGE_SIZE"
inside the loop (albeit using a shift instead of a multiplication),
please use "paddr" here, followed by "paddr += PAGE_SIZE;".
Are we certain that contiguous vaddr always maps to contiguous paddr?
For a general __flush_pages_to_ram() function, that would not be
guaranteed. But as this is meant for folios, it must be true:
