Hi John,

I spotted one thing below which might be harmless, but best to check.

Is this ever really possible? If cma_pages is non-NULL (which you
check earlier), then only if the pointer arithmetic overflows right?

If it's just redundant, then you could remove it (and in that case add
my r-b). But maybe you meant to check something else?
