Cover letter [PATCH 0/6] Minor improvements for pagewalk code
For some project I had to use the pagewalk API for certain things and during this have read through the code multiple times. Our usage has changed several times depending on our current state of research as well.
During all of this I have made some tweaks to the code to be able to follow it better when hunting my own problems, and not call into some things that I actually don't need. The patches are more or less independent of each other. Especially the last one may heavily depend on personal taste, so if you don't like it, just ignore it.
I would welcome if you could just pick those that you think are fitting and provide feedback on either of the remaining ones. At the end none of them should make any functional difference.
Regards,
Eike
