Forgive me if I'm missing something but this doesn't make sense to me.
We are taking a reference once when the region is initialized and
releasing it every time a page within the region's reference count drops
to zero. That does not seem to be symmetric and I don't see how it
tracks that pages are in use. Shouldn't get_dev_pagemap be called when
any page is allocated or something like that (ie. the inverse of
__put_page)?
Thanks,
Logan
