Now, I know it was already there and you are just moving it around in
this patch but come on ... find_vma() here ? Really ? And with no result
checking nor boundary checking (remember it can return a vma that
doesn't enclose the address etc....). Now I know in this specific case
it -should- be safe but still...

Now, the caller is just doing:
 
        book3e_hugetlb_preload(vma->vm_mm, address, *ptep);

So why not just change the prototype and pass the vma down instead ?

Cheers,
Ben.
