Well, I am also confused.

BTW, this is not introduced by me, it is introduced by:

commit 37ffe9f4d7ff ("mm/thp: fix vma_address() if virtual address
below file offset")

If it is really confusing, I can replace this line with:

"Return the end user virtual address of a page within a vma"

Thanks.
