How can we merge this with a known potential regression?

dev_pagemap is only meant for get_user_pages() to do lookups of ptes
with _PAGE_DEVMAP and take a reference against the hosting device..

Why can't HMM use the typical vm_operations_struct fault path and push
more of these details to a driver rather than the core?
