That fits into 80 cols (oh well, 81) and even if not, a trailing opening
arg brace is ugly.

That fits in 80-cols too. Why break it?

That export gets removed later too. But you know already...

Shouldn't you be grabbing the lock here already?

Or nothing can happen to that page from another thread after you
ENCLS[EREMOVE] it and before it is added to the ->page_list of the
section?

That will potentially flood dmesg. Why are we even accommodating such
callers? They either handle the error or they don't get to alloc EPC
pages. There's also __must_check with which you can enforce the error
code checking or we simply don't allow not handling failure. Fullstop.

Thx.
