Hopefully you haven't put too much effort into the rework, because I want
to commandeer the proposed changes and use them as the basis for a more
aggressive overhaul of KVM's hugepage handling.  Ironically, there's a bug
in KVM's THP handling that I _think_ can be avoided by using the DAX
approach of walking the host PTEs.

I'm in the process of testing, hopefully I'll get a series sent out later
today.  If not, I should at least be able to provide an update.
