This is dependent on patches posted at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230718024409.95742-1-aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

It appears that the above-linked series is to be updated, so
would it be appropriate to append this patch to that series?

If not, please resend this once the above-linked series has landed
in mm-unstable, thanks.


Yes, let's include that patch in that series.

In general, LGTM. Toggling it at runtime, however, makes it harder for a driver to stabilize on the value. In the context of virtio-mem this would get important (once supporting memmap_on_memory).
