Other than that, looks good here. Side note: when I was looking at the flags again just to check the interactions over numa balancing, I found FOLL_NOFAULT and I highly suspect that's not needed, instead it just wants to use follow_page[_mask]() with some proper gup flags passed over.. but that's off topic.
