Currently migrate_vma_setup() calls mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() which flushes all device private page mappings whether or not a page is being migrated to/from device private memory. In order to not disrupt device mappings that are not being migrated, shift the responsibility for clearing device private mappings to the device driver and leave CPU page table unmapping handled by migrate_vma_setup(). To support this, the caller of migrate_vma_setup() should always set struct migrate_vma::pgmap_owner to a non NULL value that matches the device private page->pgmap->owner. This value is then passed to the struct mmu_notifier_range with a new event type which the driver's invalidation function can use to avoid device MMU invalidations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
