It does feel wrong-ish to loop through potentially every page that
gup_fast just followed. But could you clarify what you had in mind just
a bit more detail? For example, in qib_user_sdma_pin_pages() we have:

    ret = get_user_pages_fast(addr, j, FOLL_LONGTERM, pages);

Should this call a filter routine to avoid CMA pages, is that it?
