What do you actually suggest here? You mean moving this code in proc code? I don't think you suggest so.
ENOMEM bug looks unrelated though.
Next step I'll do is to look into vm_unmapped_region() that looks for for a region fit to a given mmap request and returns its address. In particular, I'll focus on when vm_unmapped_region() could return kernel-space address. -- Thanks.
