Sure.

It is leftover I had done. I actually modified it to handle remote
task but changed my mind not to fix it because process_madvise
will not support it at this moment. I'm not sure it's a good idea
to change it for *might-be-done-in-future* at this moment even though
we have spotted.

Since MADV_COLD|PAGEOUT doesn't change address space layout or
vma->vm_flags, technically, we don't need it if I understand
correctly. Right?
