According to test_walk():
* @test_walk: caller specific callback function to determine whether
* we walk over the current vma or not. Returning 0 means
* "do page table walk over the current vma", returning
* a negative value means "abort current page table walk
* right now" and returning 1 means "skip the current vma"
Since this helper has vma passed in, not sure whether this is needed at
all?
walk_page_vma_range() sounds slightly better to me as it does look more
like an extension of walk_page_vma(), rather than sister version of
walk_page_range_novma() (which works for "no backing VMA" case). But no
strong opinion.
