I read that patch, and it seems like you’ve built in the assumption that all
pages in the mapping use identical protection or, if not, that the same fake
vma hack that TTM already has is used to fudge around it. Could it be reworked
slightly to avoid this?
I wonder if it’s a mistake to put the encryption bits in vm_page_prot at all.
