Perhaps VM_WARN_ONCE to back up that assumption?

I also notice that there are multiple virt_to_page() lookups in this
routine, so maybe time for a local @page variable.

A follow on cleanup is that either all implementations should be
put_dev_pagemap(), or none of them. Put the onus on the implementation
to track how many pages it has handed out in the implementation
allocator.

I'll send some follow on patches to clean up device-dax.
