patch needs to be carefully reviewed from the security POV (ie: permissions)
as well as for correctness.  Does anyone have time to do that?

Now I wonder what inspired you to reach for GFP_TEMPORARY?  Perhaps the
fact that it is crappily named and undocumented.

This should be GFP_KERNEL - the page you're allocating here is not
reclaimable by the VM.

Now that's a funky loop.  Someone please convince me that there is no way
in which `count - retval' can ever go negative (ie: huge positive).
