Number of subbufs?
And does that include the reader page? Should probably add that in the comment.

I'm guessing @nr_subbufs is not the reader page.

Should explicitly state flags will be zero until new features are

Isn't the buffer_mutex held when we modify mapped? I believe it's held
here. I don't think we need a READ_ONCE() here. Is there a reason for it?
Hmm, looking down, it looks like you take the buffer->mutex after
setting mapped, is that necessary? If we take the buffer->mutex we can
sync the reset with mapping.

Here the buffer_mutex isn't held, but still, what's the purpose of the
READ_ONCE?
I wonder if we just grab the reader_lock when setting the mapped
variable if that would be better than using READ/WRITE_ONCE, which I'm
not sure is helpful.

The above is the main reason I'm looking for a v17. If that
alloc_page() fails, what exactly is going to be returned here?
#define page_to_virt(x) __va(PFN_PHYS(page_to_pfn(x)))
#define __va(x) ((void *)((unsigned long)(x)+PAGE_OFFSET))
I don't think that will be the result you expect. We need to do the
alloc_page(), test the result of that, and then call page_to_virt() on a
page that is not NULL.

I'm thinking for extra safety we could add:
if (!addr)
return;
So this function could be called twice without issue.

Is there a reason not to take the buffer->mutex before setting mapped?

As mentioned before, it may be better to take the reader_lock when
setting mapped and that should add the protection we want with mapped
set and other readers.

Hmm, there's no protection here. If this task gets preempted for a long
time, it is possible that the cpu_buffer->reader_page can become NULL,
causing a NULL kernel dereference.
