No, sorry, I was replying only about Tony's comment about the current page 
poisoning behavior for hugetlbfs and brainstorming a way that we could 
reduce the memory failure blast radius for hugetlb pages if we had the 
doublemap support that would also be useful for post-copy live migration.

It's independent of DAX so I'm happy to fork this topic off into a 
different thread for the hugetlb discussion.
