mwriteprotect_range() errors out if [start, end) doesn't fall in one
VMA. We are facing a use case where multiple VMAs are present in one
range of interest. For example, the following pseudocode reproduces the
error which we are trying to fix:
- Allocate memory of size 16 pages with PROT_NONE with mmap
- Register userfaultfd
- Change protection of the first half (1 to 8 pages) of memory to
PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE. This breaks the memory area in two VMAs.
- Now UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP on the whole memory of 16 pages errors
out.
This is a simple use case where user may or may not know if the memory
area has been divided into multiple VMAs.

I suspect you should be adjusting the range to only cover that specific
VMA here.
