Yes, that's an improvement.  I think when I created vma_address_end()
originally (long before posting), there was only one caller who needed
to worry about PageKsm, so I avoided inflicting that awkwardness on the
others; but now it looks like most (of its few) callers do have to worry.

But I'll suggest one nit, which you can ignore if you feel strongly
otherwise: I'd prefer vma_address_end(page, vma, address) as a better
match to vma_address(page, vma).

Another way to do it, yes: I don't mind either way.

Thanks,
