Roughly, what I am thinking (limiting it to pte+pmd case) about is the following:
I cannot get the below to apply even with the original patch here applied + fix.
It looks like (in mm-new :) commit e73f43a66d5f ("mm/gup: remove dead pgmap refcounting code") by Alastair has conflicted here, but even then I can't make it apply, with/without your fix...!
I eventually resorted to telling the local AI to read the diffs and apply them on top of the nth_page series locally. :) Attaching the resulting patch, which worked well enough to at least see the proposal clearly.
To be clear: it was never intended to be applied, because it wouldn't even compile in the current form.
It was based on this nth_page submission + fix.
thanks,
