I am relying on virt_addr_valid() rejecting NULL pointers and things like ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is defined as ((void *)16). It looks like your configuration rejects NULL as an invalid virtual address, but does not reject ZERO_SIZE_PTR. Is this the intent, given that you are not allowed to dereference a ZERO_SIZE_PTR? Adding the ARM64 guys on CC for their thoughts. It is easy enough for me to make kmem_valid_obj() return false for any address less than (say) PAGE_SIZE for the upcoming merge window, but I figured I should check for the longer term. Thanx, Paul
