Yep. Rather than just sending a patch, I figured I should bring it up for discussion a bit first, as I figured that folks might have some opinions about the right interface for this. In my case, it turns out that the hardware was corrupting the 11th address bit, and so I would have needed to grep for all pointers pointing into the given page to get a hint about the problem. I'll see what I can do. --linas
