OK cool I was afraid since you did not like my unlikely patch
that you might have missed this fix.

You might as well rw & WRITE also for the above pmem_do_bvec call.
If there can be such problem than the rw == READ inside
pmem_do_bvec will fail as well.

You have removed the pmem_mapmem() helper and embedded all this here.
The patch to add page-structs that I'm posting on top of
this, uses the abstraction to switch between implementations.

I'll add the split-out to the page-structs patch.

Am heavy testing this set (Together with my small fix to e820)
And will report tomorrow if the lab is able to survive the night.

Thanks
