I still have some high level questions not yet got answered. Do you want
to answer them?

https://lore.kernel.org/all/ad59TxAHNwFWH7Cc@x1.local/

In summary, it's about:

- Whether we have explored other approaches on page hotness tracking

- Whether read protection is required for an userspace swap system
(e.g. did you get time to have a look at umap?)

Thanks,
