For this patch that is true. However, I'm trying to convert the other kmaps as
well. To do that I'll need cpage_out preserved for the final kunmap_local().

Unfortunately, the required nesting ordering of kmap_local_page() makes
converting the other calls hacky at best. I'm not sure what to do about them.
The best I've come up with is doing a hacky extra unmap/remap to preserve the
nesting.

Anyway, I'd prefer to leave this additional temp variable but I can certainly
change if it you want. The other conversions may never work/land. :-/
