I don't think users of this interface need this level of detail. I think
something like.

I think this comment belongs to the for loop below... or just something about
how to make this and put_user_pages() more efficient. It is odd, that this is
the same comment as in put_user_pages()...
The code is good. So... Other than the comments.
