Changes since v2 [1]:
- Added more documentation
- Hook the folio_put callback as a stub with a warning
- Tidying up and refactoring
- Rebased on Linux 6.14-rc2

The purpose of this series is to serve as a base for _restricted_
mmap() support for guest_memfd backed memory at the host [2]. It
would allow experimentation with what that support would be like
in the safe environment of the software VM types, which are meant
for testing and experimentation.

For more background and how to test this series, please refer to v2 [1].

Cheers,
