[merged] vfio-mm-pin_user_pages-foll_pin-and-put_user_page-conversion.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm@linux-foundation.org]

The patch titled
     Subject: vfio, mm: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) and put_user_page() conversion
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     vfio-mm-pin_user_pages-foll_pin-and-put_user_page-conversion.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>
Subject: vfio, mm: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) and put_user_page() conversion

1. Change vfio from get_user_pages_remote(), to
   pin_user_pages_remote().

2. Because all FOLL_PIN-acquired pages must be released via
   put_user_page(), also convert the put_page() call over to
   put_user_pages_dirty_lock().

Note that this effectively changes the code's behavior in
vfio_iommu_type1.c: put_pfn(): it now ultimately calls
set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of set_page_dirty().  This is probably more
accurate.

As Christoph Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are
dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it
hangs off." [1]
