Okay, can you suggest a better one? That's the best I could come up
with that wasn't long winded.
How about apply_to_page_range()?
secondly, I think you confuse our (confusing) terminology: the page
that holds pte_ts is not the pte_page, the pte_page is the page that
a pte points to
What should we call it? Essentially we want to be able to get the
physical address of a PTE in some cases, and passing struct page
pointer seemed the best way to be able to derive that. I can rename it
to something else vaguely plausible if the only problem is the
semantic clash with Linux's idiomatic use of pte_page.
Looks like pmd_page is correct?
