IIRC, count <= nr_pages. Wouldn't that mean that we somehow pass in nr_pages that already exceeds the given folio+start?

When I last looked at this, I was not able to spot the error in the caller :(

do_fault_around() comments "This way it's easier to guarantee that we don't cross page table boundaries."

It does some magic with PTRS_PER_PTE.

You're diff here seems to indicate that this is not the case?

But it's rather surprising that we see these issues pop up just now in -next.
