[PATCH RFC 07/10] device-dax: Add support for PFN_SPECIAL flags

From: Joao Martins
Date: Fri Jan 10 2020 - 14:05:42 EST


Right now we assume there's gonna be a PFN_DEV|PFN_MAP which
means it will have a struct page backing the PFN but that is
not placed in normal system RAM zones.

Add support for PFN_DEV|PFN_SPECIAL only and therefore the
underlying vma won't have a struct page. For device dax, this
means not assuming callers will pass a dev_pagemap, and avoid
returning SIGBUS for the lack of PFN_MAP region pfn flag and
finally not setting struct page index/mapping on fault.
