Are these % thingies part of kerneldoc?

Methinks we should be setting vma->vm_flags's VM_IO here and perhaps
also VM_RESERVED.

This will leave the module loaded but inactive. Would it make more
sense to return an error code in this case so that a) the user
discovers that he wasted his time and b) the module will get booted out
again?
