Andrew,

please drop all my patches except the following 2 from your queue for now:

-mm: pagewalk: fix documentation of PTE hole handling
-mm: pagewalk: add api documentation for walk_page_range_novma()

Some of these patches are clearly outdated now with 
8782fb61cc848364e1e1599d76d3c9dd58a1cc06 being included. I'll review them in 
detail eventually and resubmit what is still relevant.

Regards,

Eike
