Yes, this is page refcount elevation. ZONE_DEVICE pages do this also,
which is hidden in put_devmap_managed_page(). I would really like to
find a generic solution for this, as it has come up in other cases as
well (page recycling for page_pool, for example). Some way to say "this
page is different", and a separate routine to release refcounts.
Can we have a discussion on this possibility?
