+ * we do have is the guarantee that a pte will only either go from not
+ * present to present, or present to not present or both -- it will not
+ * switch to a completely different present page without a TLB flush in
+ * between; something that we are blocking by holding interrupts off.
+ *
+ * Setting ptes from not present to present goes:
+ * ptep->pte_high = h;
+ * smp_wmb();
+ * ptep->pte_low = l;
+ *
+ * And present to not present goes:
+ * ptep->pte_low = 0;
+ * smp_wmb();
+ * ptep->pte_high = 0;
+ *
+ * We must ensure here that the load of pte_low sees l iff pte_high
+ * sees h. We load pte_high *after* loading pte_low, which ensures we
+ * don't see an older value of pte_high. *Then* we recheck pte_low,
+ * which ensures that we haven't picked up a changed pte high. We might
+ * have got rubbish values from pte_low and pte_high, but we are
+ * guaranteed that pte_low will not have the present bit set *unless*
+ * it is 'l'. And get_user_pages_fast only operates on present ptes, so
+ * we're safe.
