Hmm, instead of reverting to passing maxbytes *instead* of maxpages, I think the
right fix is to *add* the maxbytes argument.

Just maxbytes alone doesn't have enough information in it.  E.g. 4096 contiguous
bytes could occupy 1 or 2 pages, depending on the starting offset.

So how about the following (untested) patch?

Thanks,
Miklos
