I see ..ok.

I do not understand the split either..but you said :

"There are two problems that are being solved: having a sparse layout
requiring splitting up mem_map (solved by discontigmem and your
nonlinear), and supporting non-linear phys to virt relationships (Dave
M's implentation which does the mem_map split as well)."


so what's the split?
