Yes. In fact, it wasn't before, so hence the choice of words here.

This keeps coming up: I have a series in the freezer that decouples
the kernel mapping from the linear mapping, which makes another round
of changes to this function. So that is why I cloned the function in
the first place, only to reuse this patch for this series as well.

The following does the trick as well, but I am not sure if the alias
attribute is allowed in the kernel

Indeed.
