It is not a concern now. However, there has been talk about other code doing something similar to remove struct pages. If that ever happens then we will need a different locking scheme. Disregard my statement about there being no overlap. I was confusing page tables for huge pages with page tables for mappings mmap entries of huge pages. -- Mike Kravetz
