[PATCH] mm/gup: remove the vma allocation from gup_longterm_locked()

[Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com>]

Long ago there wasn't a FOLL_LONGTERM flag so this DAX check was done by
post-processing the VMA list.

These days it is trivial to just check each VMA to see if it is DAX before
processing it inside __get_user_pages() and return failure if a DAX VMA is
encountered with FOLL_LONGTERM.

Removing the allocation of the VMA list is a significant speed up for many
call sites.

Add an IS_ENABLED to vma_is_fsdax so that code generation is unchanged
when DAX is compiled out.

Remove the dummy version of __gup_longterm_locked() as !CONFIG_CMA already
makes memalloc_nocma_save(), check_and_migrate_cma_pages(), and
memalloc_nocma_restore() into a NOP.

This was tested using the fake nvdimm stuff and RDMA's FOLL_LONGTERM pin
continues to correctly reject DAX vmas and returns EOPNOTSUPP

Pavel, this accomplishes the same #ifdef clean up as your patch series for CMA
by just deleting all the code that justified the ifdefs.

FWIW, this is probably going to be the start of a longer trickle of patches to
make pin_user_pages()/unpin_user_pages() faster. This flow is offensively slow
right now.

Ira, I investigated streamlining the callers from here, and you are right.
The distinction that FOLL_LONGTERM means locked == NULL is no longer required
now that the vma list isn't used, and with some adjusting of the CMA path we
can purge out a lot of other complexity too.

I have some drafts, but I want to tackle this separately.
