I meant I might want to expand mvolatile's interface like below
during discussion.
int mvolatile(start, len, mode);

I coudn't understand your claim.
Now mvolatile just return EINVAL on !CONFIG_VOLATILE_PAGE system.
Why is it easy compared to returning EINVAL when we call madvise(VOLATILE)
on !CONFIG_VOLATILE_PAGE?

I just wanted to discuss about needs of it.
The reason I need PARTIAL_VOLATILE is that avoids many minor fault
for allocator. Is it useful for tmpfs-volatile, too?
Thanks for the feedback, Taras.
