I am probably missing something here but I am confused.
Now we either return -EFAULT or the address.

But page_vma_mapped_walk() gets called from collect_procs_anon() like
this:

if (!page_mapped_in_vma(page, vma))

so that is not gonna work the way we want?
Should not that be converted to

 if (page_mapped_in_vma(page, vma) == -EFAULT)

?
