Re: [PATCH v4 2/2] mm/hmm/test: add self tests for HMM

[Christoph Hellwig]

Shouldn't this go into mm/ instead? It certainly doesn't seem
like a library.

Why does this iterate in page sized chunks?  I don't remember a page
size limit on copy_{from,to}_user.

Can we adopts this to Jasons new interval tree invalidate?

Device files usually just ignore O_EXCL, I don't see why this one
would be any different.

->open is only called for the first open of a given file structure..

This can't happen if your ->open never returns 0 without setting the
private data.

The file is feed afterwards, no need to clear the private data.
