This doesn't work, because "val + count" is an int.

Also, here any underflow should warn.

You can actually use the fact that val + count is an int like this:

WARN_ON(val + count < 0 || val + count > USHRT_MAX)

and also please return if the warning fires.

I don't think it is right to walk all address spaces. The good news is
that you're not using kvm_page_track_{add,remove}_page at all as far as
I can see, so you can just remove them.

Also, when you will need it, I think it's better to move the
spin_lock/spin_unlock pair outside the for loop. With this change,
perhaps it's better to leave it to the caller completely---but I cannot
say until I see the caller.

In the meanwhile, please leave out _nolock from the other functions' name.
