Thanks on your reply.
As you could see, I preserved pure mapping of pfn for vvar:
7ffcc4b2b000-7ffcc4b2d000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
7ffcc4b2d000-7ffcc4b2f000 r-xp 00000000 00:09 18 [vdso]
(no inode number).
I also think it would be useless to do the same to vvar as it
has just data and there is no point in probing it.
