Hello Andrei,

Thank you for reviewing.

I think I can define a macro to hide this dirty bit shifting in the function.

Will do in the next revision.

We are considering memory in the page units. The memory given to this IOCTL
must have PAGE_SIZE alignment. Oterwise we error out (picked this from
mincore()).

Yes, will do.

I'll update the implementation to return error. It immediately terminates
the walk as well.

I'm not returning error to userspace if we found no page matching the
masks. The total number of filled page_region are returned from the IOCTL.
If IOCTL returns 0, it means no page found has found, but the IOCTL
executed successfully.

I'll update to kvzalloc which uses vmalloc if kmalloc fails. It'll use
kmalloc for smaller allocations. Thanks for suggesting it. But it'll not
limit the memory allocation.
