Yes, though that's only possible after commit cc8d1b097de7 ("mmap: clean
up mmap_region() unrolling") in 6.3-rc1. It's worth adding a separate
patch to simplify this before final 6.3.

Ah, good point, thanks. I think that's a left-over from my early attempt
at this series. The loop was changed in 5.19 with commit 4a18419f71cd
("mm/mprotect: use mmu_gather") but the patch not updated.

So yeah, it needs fixing. Joey, could you please send fixes for both
issues above?

Thanks.
