Well, I somewhat dislike the vma_is_dax() checks sprinkled around. That
seems rather errorprone (easy to forget about it when adding new check
somewhere). Can we possibly also create a helper vma_is_special() (or some
other name) which would do ((vma->vm_flags & VM_SPECIAL) || vma_is_dax(vma)
|| is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma)) and then use it in all those places?
