The "missed" part makes it sound like this was done by accident. On the
contrary, for now we decided to not expose these pages that way, for
example, because determining if the memmap was already properly
initialized isn't quite easy.

What's the main motivation for this?

Ehm, don't you have to reset pgmap back to NULL? Otherwise during the
next iteration, you'll see pgmap != NULL again.

Similar comment.

Similar comment.


IIRC, we might still stumble over uninitialized devmap memmaps that
essentially contain garbage -- I recall it might be the device metadata.
I wonder if we at least have to check pgmap_pfn_valid().
