[PATCH] staging: kpc2000: Convert put_page() to put_user_page*()

[Bharath Vedartham <linux.bhar@gmail.com>]

There have been issues with get_user_pages and filesystem writeback.
The issues are better described in [1].

The solution being proposed wants to keep track of gup_pinned pages which will allow to take furthur steps to coordinate between subsystems using gup.

put_user_page() simply calls put_page inside for now. But the implementation will change once all call sites of put_page() are converted.

I currently do not have the driver to test. Could I have some suggestions to test this code? The solution is currently implemented in [2] and
it would be great if we could apply the patch on top of [2] and run some tests to check if any regressions occur.
