The userfaultfd mechanism is designed to allow user-space paging. Its initial implementation merged in Linux 4.3 was designed for KVM/QEMU use-case and lacked some functionality necessary for CRIU. In Linux 4.11 the userfaultfd was extended with so-called "non-cooperative" mode, that allows, at least in theory, lazy (or post-copy) restore in CRIU.
