Thanks for the patches.

This sentense is unclear because latter part ("a filesystem with ...")
is not true for pfns not backed by struct page.  Could you separate this
notice into two (one for fsdax case and one for "non struct page" case)?

Maybe you need update the comment not to restrict to fsdax page?

It might not be a major issue, but these new code above seems to be used
only when CONFIG_NVGRACE_GPU_VFIO_PCI is enabled, so putting this in
#ifdef block might be helpful to save binary size without nvgrace-gpu-vfio-pci.
