This whole block should probably go inside the is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) check,
since we have to perform that check anyway.

Can you check stride_size here directly, and drop the loop? We should be able to
assume that the huge page size is valid. Non-NAPOT hugepages will hit one of the
equal-to cases below, which is fine.

Yes, you're right.

Yes, again, you're right.

I'll respin a new version now, let it go through our CI and send it tomorrow,
