Note, that this also includes retaining process memory related to the I/O. In my experiment I used regular 4 KiB pages, which is smaller or equal to the I/O block size. However, in case of huge pages only a small fraction can be I/O related. And I suppose, that this small part would pin the whole page, which might have some sensitive information. Still protected, however, but who knows.
