Hmm, this is an interesting code path. There seems to be a mix of pages
in the game. We get one page via follow_page_mask but then other pages
in the range are filled by __munlock_pagevec_fill and that does a direct
pte walk. Is using put_user_page correct in this case? Could you explain
why in the changelog?
