Correct me if I'm wrong but cannot the same pfn be mapped by different VMAs
with different granularity? I recall that if we have a fully allocated PMD
entry in the radix tree we can hand out 4k entries from inside of it just
fine... So whether dax_mapping_size() returns 4k or 2MB would be random?
Why don't we use the entry size in the radix tree when we have done all the
work and looked it up there to lock it anyway?
