>Description:
there're many codes in uvm which assume,
if a page pg is obtained by pgo_get with an uvm object uobj,
pg->uobject == uobj. this assumption is wrong for
the most of our layered filesystems.
eg.
pgo_get(uobj, ..., &pg, ...);
simple_lock(&uobj->vmobjlock);
manipulate pg->flags; /* broken if pg->uobject != uobj */
simple_unlock(&uobj->vmobjlock);
>How-To-Repeat:
code inspection.
