The purpose of posting this series is to launch a test in the
intel-gfx-ci tree. (The patches have already been merged into Andrew's
linux-mm tree.)
This applies to today's linux.git (note the base-commit tag at the
bottom).
Changes since V1:
* Fixed a bug in the refactoring patch: added FOLL_FAST_ONLY to the
list of gup_flags *not* to WARN() on. This lead to a failure in the
first intel-gfx-ci test run [1].

Ran this through our CI, warn and subsequent lockup were gone. That

Yea! Thanks again for these test runs. I really don't like posting
patches that I can't run-time test, but this CI system mitigates
that pretty well.
lockup is worrying me now, but that doesn't seem to be an issue from
this series.
I do think it's worth following up on. And it seems like it would be
very easy to repro: just hack in a forced failure at the call site of
pin_user_pages_fast_only(), and follow the breadcrumbs.
The i915 changes were simple enough, I would have computed the pin flags
just once (since the readonly bit is static, that would be interesting
if that was allowed to change mid gup :)

Thanks for the review! And if lifting that check up higher in the call
stack is desired, I'm all in favor of that being done...in a separate
patch. :)
I'm trying to keep a very light touch when converting these call sites.
thanks,
