It feels a little dangerous to have page->mapping for shared storage
point to an actual address_space when there are really multiple
potential address_spaces out there.  If the mm or dax folks are ok with
doing this this way then I'll live with it, but it seems like you'd want
to leave /some/ kind of marker once you know that the page has multiple
owners and therefore regular mm rmap via page->mapping won't work.
