Are you sure you can make this change?

You are restricting the offset to be within 0..nr_pages which ensures
that the initial struct page that is passed to vm_insert_range() is
valid, but I think the removal of the following check is unsafe.

Your new vm_insert_range() function only checks page_count <=
vma_pages(vma), which it will be since it _is_ vma_pages(vma).  With
the removal of the second condition, there will be nothing checking
that (eg) off may be nr_pages - 1, and page_count=50, meaning that
vm_insert_range() will walk off the end of the page array.

Please take another look at this.

What about the other callsites of your new function - do they have
the same issue?
