Yes, I used get_user_pages_fast, however if falled back to
get_user_pages() when the apps doesn't allocate buffer on the same page.
If I run a single ping, the RTT is extremely high, but when running
multiple pings, the RTT time reduce significantly, but still it is not
as fast as copy from my initial test. I am thinking that we might need
to pre-pin memory pool.
