I am not familiar with both dax and power to be sure on the hardware
implications here, sorry.  I think as long as one can create some /dev/dax
with 1g mapping alignment (I suppose normally with ndctl) then it should be
able to hit the mprotect() path.

One can verify first without this series that it could trigger a bad pud,
then it'll be away after this series applied.  Meanwhile the mprotect()
should apply on the 1g dax range properly.

Thanks,
