Sounds good, once 0day has a chance to chew on the conversion I'll send
it out.

pfn to pfn_t conversions are more likely, so the high bits sounds
better.

Heh, true.  It's now PFN_FLAGS_MASK in the reworked patch...

Subject: mm, dax, pmem: introduce pfn_t

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

In preparation for enabling get_user_pages() operations on dax mappings,
introduce a type that encapsulates a page-frame-number that can also be
used to encode other information.  This other information is the
historical "page_link" encoding in a scatterlist, but can also denote
"device memory".  Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are not
part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via the
same memory controller as ram.  The motivation for this new type is
large capacity persistent memory that optionally has struct page entries
in the 'memmap'.

When a driver, like pmem, has established a devm_memremap_pages()
mapping it needs to communicate to upper layers that the pfn has a page
backing.  This property will be leveraged in a later patch to enable
dax-gup.  For now, update all the ->direct_access() implementations to
communicate whether the returned pfn range is mapped.
