Can this buffer_head really be in highmem?

Returns an address wthin the kmapped page.  I really hope
nilfs_sufile_block_get_segment_usage() cannot return an address outside
that page - it appears to do quite a lot of unchecked arithmetic which
is dependent on stuff which was read from the disk.  What it that was
interfered with or otherwise corrupted?

flush_dcache_page()?  Can the page be mapped by userspace?

put_bh() will suffice - we know bh != NULL.
