Ok, I checked the patchset [1] and I think it is nice that those two (devm and HMM) get unified. I think it will make things easier when we have to change things for the memory-hotplug. Actually, I think that after [2], all hot-adding memory will be handled in devm_memremap_pages.
What I do not see is why the patch did not make it to further RCs.
