I definitely didn't mean to ignore any of the feedback. IIRC we were in
a disagreement in the failure mode for retry loop - i.e. free all the
allocated pages in case page table pages cannot be allocated. I still
maintain my position and until there is a wider consensus on that I will
keep my current implementation. The other concern was about failures
warning but that shouldn't be a problem when basing on the current Linus
tree. Am I missing something?
