If this is the case then the problem is that the return -EFAULT path
needs to do something else.. ie since the above code can't trigger
swap in, it is correct to return PFN_ERROR.

I'm completely guessing, but do we need to call pmd_to_swp_entry() and
handle things similarly to the pte? What swp_entries are valid for a
pmd?

Do you understand this better, or know how to trigger a !pmd_present
for test?

I suppose another option would be this:

	if (!pmd_present(pmd)) {
		hmm_range_need_fault(hmm_vma_walk, pfns, npages, 0, &fault,
				     &write_fault);
                /* We can't handle this. Cause the PMD to be split and
		 * handle it in the pte handler. */
		if (fault || write_fault)
 		        return 0;
  		return hmm_pfns_fill(start, end, range, HMM_PFN_NONE);
        }

Which, I think, must be correct, but inefficient?
