So for some reason i thought exit_mmap() was setting the mm_rb
to empty node and flushing vmacache so that find_vma() would
fail. Might have been in some patch that never went upstream.
Note that right before find_vma() there is also range->valid
check which will also intercept mm release.
Anyway the easy fix is to get ref on mm user in range_register.

Suggestion ? i have no idea for a better name, it has pfn value
in it.
