I'm ok with that.

Seems reasonable to me. I was focused on getting pages which were busy not necessarily on what got unmapped. So I did not consider this. Thanks for the suggestion. However, I don't understand the math you do for length? Is this comment/code correct? + /* length is being calculated from lstart and not start. + * This is due to behavior of unmap_mapping_range().

And why would a start of 4094 unmap idx 0? Ira
