Apologies I missed the nice kerneldoc. I'll fix that in the next round.

Huh, I didn't even notice the GFP_ATOMIC here. This looks indeed
strange and GFP_KERNEL should be perfectly fine in a function that
also calls pin_user_pages (since that one can allocate and do worse
stuff like userspace pagefaults).

But since that GFP_ATOMIC is there already I'll do that in a separate patch.

Excellent. I'll wait with v3 until that's done, just in case you hit a
snag I need to fix.
