In general, I want the actual userspace access to be as close as
possible and 1:1 with the access_ok() checks.  That way, it's blatantly
obvious that the pointers have been checked.

*But* get_user_pages() has access_ok() checks inside of its
implementation, which makes sense.  *But*, that begs the question of
what the top-level one was doing in the first place.  Maybe it was just
superfluous.

Either way, it still doesn't explain what this is doing:

I think the point is to create a stable kernel alias address for
'src_page' so that any mucking with the userspace mapping doesn't screw
up the __eadd() and any failures aren't due to reclaim or MADV_DONTNEED.

If this isn't even touching the userspace mapping, it didn't need
access_ok() in the first place.
