Yes; IMHO "details->zap_mapping" is just replaced by the check at [1].
For example, there's only one real user of this mapping check, which is
unmap_mapping_pages() below [2].
With the old code, we have:
details.check_mapping = even_cows ? NULL : mapping;
So "details->zap_mapping" is only true if "!even_cows".
With the new code, we'll have:
if (!even_cows)
details.zap_flags |= ZAP_FLAG_CHECK_MAPPING;
So ZAP_FLAG_CHECK_MAPPING is only set if "!even_cows", while that's what we
check exactly at [1].
