I believe I've tried that but I couldn't make them into a single header file easily because of header file dependencies. I agree that their names are quite confusing.

Then why > the git diff looks so clumsy. Kirill was suggesting to use --patience to general the diff which leads to a slightly better output. It has been posted as a separate email [1]. Maybe you will find that one easier to review.

Current > implementation is holding it for an entire batch. I didn't bother to optimize this path to be honest. It is true that lock batching can lead to improvements but that would complicate the code (how many patches to batch?) so I've left that for later if somebody actually sees any problem. > > + err = -EFAULT; > > + vma = find_vma(mm, addr); > > + if (!vma || addr < vma->vm_start || !vma_migratable(vma)) > > While here, should not we add 'addr > vma->vm_end' into this condition ? No. See what find_vma does.
