Subject: [PATCH v3 06/12] mm/gup: require FOLL_GET for get_user_pages_fast()

Internal to mm/gup.c, require that get_user_pages_fast()
and __get_user_pages_fast() identify themselves, by setting
FOLL_GET. This is required in order to be able to make decisions
based on "FOLL_PIN, or FOLL_GET, or both or neither are set", in
upcoming patches.
