Finally, with the advance of high level language constructs (in C++ but in
other languages too) it is now possible for the compiler to leverage GPUs and
other devices without programmer knowledge. Some compiler identified patterns
are only do-able with a shared address space. It is also more reasonable to use

This replaces all mappings for pages in the given range with special swap
entries. Any attempt to access the swap entry results in a fault which is
resovled by replacing the entry with the original mapping. A driver gets
resolved by replacing the entry with the original mapping. A driver gets
notified that the mapping has been changed by MMU notifiers, after which point
it will no longer have exclusive access to the page. Exclusive access is
guaranteed to last until the driver drops the page lock and page reference, at

against same memory cgroup a regular page would be accounted to. This does
simplify migration to and from device memory. This also means that migration
back from device memory to regular memory cannot fail because it would
go above memory cgroup limit. We might revisit this choice latter on once we
go above memory cgroup limit. We might revisit this choice later on once we
get more experience in how device memory is used and its impact on memory
resource control.
