I really don't like the name page_check_walk().  "check" could mean any
damn thing.  Something like page_vma_mapped_walk() has meaning.  We
could omit the "_walk" for brevity.

One thing which I don't think was documented is that it is the caller's
responsibility to initialize this appropriately before calling
page_check_walk().  At least, .pte and .ptl must be NULL, for
page_check_walk_done().

Was the decision to inline this a correct one?

Can we please have a comment explaining what the barrier() does?

The compiler will just ignore all these "inline" statements.

Thankfully, because inlining this one does seem inappropriate - it's
enormous!
