But as I pointed out, his code has to iterate through *every* page in range so mprotect() will be very slow if the range is large. So he would end up introducing something similar to achieve the same performance.

It seems odd to stick it in security/ if it only has one user, though.
Also, if it wasn't in security/, then the security folks would stop
complaining :)
