[RFC PATCH v2 15/19] mm/gup: Introduce vaddr_pin_pages()

[ira.weiny@intel.com]

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com>

The addition of FOLL_LONGTERM has taken on additional meaning for CMA
pages.

In addition subsystems such as RDMA require new information to be passed
to the GUP interface to track file owning information.  As such a simple
FOLL_LONGTERM flag is no longer sufficient for these users to pin pages.

Introduce a new GUP like call which takes the newly introduced vaddr_pin
information.  Failure to pass the vaddr_pin object back to a vaddr_put*
call will result in a failure if pins were created on files during the
pin operation.
