Is it just me, or does

	((user_addr + iov[seg].iov_len + PAGE_SIZE - 1)/PAGE_SIZE - user_addr/PAGE_SIZE)

not simplify to

	= ((iov[seg].iov_len + PAGE_SIZE - 1)/PAGE_SIZE + user_addr/PAGE_SIZE - user_addr/PAGE_SIZE)

	= ((iov[seg].iov_len + PAGE_SIZE - 1)/PAGE_SIZE)

	= DIV_ROUND_UP(iov[seg].iov_len, PAGE_SIZE)

CMIIW.
