mmap issues

In the driver is:
static int S_Mmap(struct file * flip, struct vm_area_struct *vma) {

<snip>
unsigned long size = (unsigned long)vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start;
<------size = 2000 for this case
unsigned long start = (unsigned long)vma->vm_start;

  vma->vm_flags |= VM_LOCKED;

vaddy = kmalloc(size , GFP_KERNEL); strcpy((char*)vaddy, "testing\0"); mem_map_reserve(virt_to_page(vaddy));
result = remap_page_range(start, virt_to_phys(vaddy), size,
vma->vm_page_prot);
if (result)

       return -EAGAIN;

return 0;

in user space is:
<snip>
pdma->dwBytes = 2000;
pdma->pUserAddr = mmap(0, pdma->dwBytes, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, hWd, 0);
str = (char*)pdma->pUserAddr;
<snip)

when I try to view the memory that I just mmap()ed using gdb I see:
$12 = 0x40018000 <Address 0x40018000 out of bounds>

If I don't do the mem_map_reserve() command I can view the memory but it is all zeros.

What am I missing?

TIA
