You're right, this complains with lockdep:

I guess the locking implementation is recursive so that's why this
didn't actually deadlock...
I'm not sure what the right way to do this is then. The underlying
reason why the fallback code is being called is that do_wp_page() calls
vm_normal_page(), which returns NULL for VM_PFNMAP pages. So vmf->page
is NULL and __wp_page_copy_user has to use the fallback path. However,
the reason GUP works is that follow_page_pte() and friends have a
specific fallback path for the pte_devmap() case that grabs a struct
page anyway. Maybe similar logic should be in do_wp_page() so it can
grab a struct page for PFN mappings too?
Or if the problem is just the lock, would just eliding the locking work?
I guess that only works if all the calls into wp_page_copy() are
guaranteed to hold the mmap lock already, but I don't know if that is
true...
