Yep. Rather than just sending a patch, I figured I should bring it up
for discussion a bit first, as I figured that folks might have some
opinions about the right interface for this.
In my case, it turns out that the hardware was corrupting the 11th
address bit, and so I would have needed to grep for all pointers
pointing into the given page to get a hint about the problem.
I'll see what I can do.
