You mean pmem that is DAX-capable that suddenly, without warning,
becomes non-DAX capable?

If you are not talking about pmem and DAX, then exactly what does
"when a filesystem page is migrated to device memory that CPU can
not access" mean? What "filesystem page" are we talking about that
can get migrated from main RAM to something the CPU can't access?

Cheers,

Dave.
