Is cluster really properly sign extended on 64bit? Looks a little
dubious. long from the start would be safer

Same.

You could be more efficient here by using the standard mm/* nested loop
pattern that avoids relookup of everything in each iteration. I suppose
it would mainly make a difference with 32bit highpte where mapping a pte
can be somewhat costly. And you would take less locks this way.

That's out of memory, break would be better here because prefetch
while oom is usually harmful.

Shouldn't that page be already handled in the loop earlier? Why doing that
again? It would be better to remember it from there.
