1702 * Faults in an address range using get_user_pages, i.e., without triggering
1703 * hardware page faults. This is primarily useful when we know that some or
1704 * all of the pages in the address range aren't in memory.

1709 * in. There's no guarantee that they'll stay in memory for any duration of
