I think you are changing behavior here - is this intentional? Previously this
would be evaluated per page, now its evaluated once for the whole range. The
intention below is that directly faulted pages are mapped young and prefaulted
pages are mapped old. But now a whole range will be mapped the same.

Thanks,
Ryan
