I guess the reason we need to validate every page is because they may
already have been legitimately mapped if someone else's reserved region
overlaps - is it worth explicitly validating that, i.e. bail out if
something's gone wrong enough that phys_addr != addr?
Other than the naming issue (I agree that map_size is a far, far better
choice), I don't have any strong opinions about the rest of the
implementation - I've written enough variations of this pattern to know
that there's just no "nice" way to do it in C; all you can do is shuffle
the clunkiness around :)
