 /*
+ * This allows drivers to insert individual pages they've allocated

+ * The page has to be a nice clean _individual_ kernel allocation.

+ * such (__GFP_COMP), or manually just split the page up yourself
+ * (which is mainly an issue of doing "set_page_count(page, 1)" for
+ * each sub-page, and then freeing them one by one when you free
+ * them rather than freeing it as a compound page).
+ *
+ * NOTE! Traditionally this was done with "remap_pfn_range()" which
+ * took an arbitrary page protection parameter. This doesn't allow
+ * that. Your vma protection will have to be set up correctly, which
+ * means that if you want a shared writable mapping, you'd better
+ * ask for a shared writable mapping!

+ * The page does not need to be reserved.
