[PATCH] staging: gasket: Convert get_user_pages*() --> pin_user_pages*()
From: Souptick Joarder
Date: Wed May 27 2020 - 16:54:42 EST
This code was using get_user_pages_fast(), in a "Case 2" scenario
(DMA/RDMA), using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's
time to convert the get_user_pages_fast() + put_page() calls to
pin_user_pages_fast() + unpin_user_page() calls.
There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small
part of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and
file systems' use of those pages.

Hi,
I'm compile tested this, but unable to run-time test, so any testing
help is much appriciated.
