THAT makes no sense - that would just make > GUP look up some other address than what was asked for. get_user_pages has a start and a nr_pages argument, which specifies an address range from start to start + nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE. If pages != NULL, it adds a pointer to that array for each PAGE_SIZE subpage. I was thinking of skipping over VM_IO vmas in that process, so when the range starts in a mappable vma, runs into a VM_IO vma, and ends in a mappable vma, the pages in the pages array would be discontiguous; they would only cover the mappable vmas. But that would make it difficult to make sense of what's in the pages array.

The v6 patch queue should handle those cases acceptably well for now, but I don't think we have tests covering that at all.
