Urk, it already doesn't apply to the rdma tree :(

The conflicts are a little more extensive than I'd prefer to handle..
Can I ask you to rebase it on top of this branch please:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma.git/log/?h=wip/jgg-for-next

Specifically it conflicts with this patch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma.git/commit/?h=wip/jgg-for-next&id=d2183c6f1958e6b6dfdde279f4cee04280710e34

Is this math OK? What is supposed to happen if the range->start is not
page aligned to the internal page size?

But we are not in a HMM context here, and per_mm is not a HMM
structure.

So why is mm suddenly guarenteed valid? It was a bug report that
triggered the race the mmget_not_zero is fixing, so I need a better
explanation why it is now safe. From what I see the hmm_range_fault
is doing stuff like find_vma without an active mmget??

How can this happen? Where is the locking?

per_mm is supposed to outlive any odp_mr's the refer to it, and the mm
is supposed to remain grab'd as long as the per_mm exists..

Are these actually pfns, or are they mangled with some shift? (what is range->pfn_shift?)
