[PATCH] mm/gup: add strict interface to pin user pages according to FOLL flag

From: Leon Romanovsky
Date: Mon Mar 18 2024 - 05:16:41 EST


All pin_user_pages*() and get_user_pages*() callbacks allocate user
pages by partially taking into account their p2p vs. non-p2p properties.

In case, user sets FOLL_PCI_P2PDMA flag, the allocated pages will include
both p2p and "regular" pages, while if FOLL_PCI_P2PDMA flag is not provided,
only regular pages are returned.

In order to make sure that with FOLL_PCI_P2PDMA flag, only p2p pages are
returned, let's introduce new internal FOLL_STRICT flag and provide special
pin_user_pages_fast_strict() API call.
