This functional can return an error but have partially converted some
of the npages requested by the caller. Should this function return the
number of affected pages or something to allow the caller to know if
some pages need to be reverted? Or should the function attempt to do
that itself?

We now have leaked the given pages right? Should some warning be
logged or should we track these leaked pages and maybe try and free
them with a kworker?
