I've added your suggestion as a cleanup patch between 9 and current 10 (11 in v7): ---->8---- >From 999cec9efa757b82f435124518b042caeb51bde6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2021 11:12:00 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] device-dax: remove pfn from __dev_dax_{pte,pmd,pud}_fault() After moving the page mapping to be set prior to pte insertion, the pfn in dev_dax_huge_fault() no longer is necessary. Remove it, as well as the @pfn argument passed to the internal fault handler helpers.
