I'd rather not do this on the fast path

And vma's cannot be de-refenced outside the mmap_sem

There is already logic checking for linear contiguous pages:

                        if (user_virt & ~page_mask) {
                                p += PAGE_SIZE;
                                if (page_to_phys(local_page_list[j]) != p) {
                                        ret = -EFAULT;
                                        break;
                                }

Why do we need to add the vma check?
