I think that would break anyway the memremap case. So I think we should indeed reset map->page, but we should set it to a poison value: #define KVM_UNMAPPED_PAGE ((void *) 0x500 + POISON_POINTER_DELTA) mem->page = KVM_UNMAPPED_PAGE; This should make it clear to everyone that checking map->page is _not_ the right thing to do in any case.
