Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN.
As mentioned in the FOLL_PIN documentation, callers who effectively set
FOLL_PIN are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page().
The effect is similar to FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET
for DIO and/or RDMA use".

I'd move this still a bit higher - just after VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() and before
if (flags & FOLL_TOUCH) test. Because touch_pmd() can update page tables
and we don't won't that if we're going to fail the fault.
Done. I'll post a full v11 series shortly.
