Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages_unlocked

Introduce pin_user_pages_unlocked(), which is nearly identical to the
get_user_pages_unlocked() that it wraps, except that it sets FOLL_PIN
and rejects FOLL_GET.

As with other pairs of get_user_pages*() and pin_user_pages() API calls,
it's prudent to assert that FOLL_PIN is *not* set in the
get_user_pages*() call, so add that as part of this.
