Well, Ian, because you put all of these "struct page *" MM layer
const changes in here I can't just apply this series once you
get it ready enough from a networking perspective.

Why not do the const crap later, so it can be done independently
of these changes and not be a dependency upon them?

I know you want to pass const page structs down as far as possible,
but that can wait for later, make the networking bits work on
non-const pointers for now.
