Would it be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE instead ? Why __GFP_ZERO ? If its
coming from Buddy, every thing should have already been zeroed out
in there. Am I missing something ?

This is where I was experimenting for requests beyond MAX_ORDER
with alloc_contig_range().

Interesting and this should be kept there a little longer if we would like
to support expansion of this VMA to the next power of 2 which we originally
allocated for any way.

You wanted to have this outside of mmap_sem lock right ?
