Incidentally this made me look at other uses of PageHighMem in
the kernel.

The one in copy_page_from_iter_atomic looks buggy because it assumes
that the kmap never maps a page if PageHighMem is false, which is not
the case for CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP.

I think this is still wrong for the > PAGE_SIZE case.  The existing
code flushes each page sequentially  but the new code only flushes the
first page.
