Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] fs/aio.c: use get_user_pages_non_movable() to pin ring pages when support memory hotremove

This patch gets around the aio ring pages can't be migrated bug caused by
get_user_pages() via using the new function. It only works as configed with
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, otherwise it falls back to use the old version
 of get_user_pages().
