Hi Matt,

I tested this on a two-CPU UP2000 with PAGE_TABLE_CHECK enabled and
enforced. A userspace test exercised anonymous, private file-backed,
and shared mappings, together with fork/COW, mprotect(), madvise(),
PTE teardown, and refault.

Single-process and concurrent CPU-pinned runs completed successfully,
with no page-table-check warnings, BUGs, or oopses.
