OK I poked at this for a bit, I see several things that
we need to fix, though I'm not yet sure it's the reason for
the failures:
This stuff looks quite similar to the hmm_mirror use model and other
places in the kernel. I'm still hoping we can share this code a bit more.
Right. I think hmm is something we should look at.


Exactly. I plan to do that.

Thanks
