Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] mm/gup: skip pinnable check for refs==1

This fixes commit 54d516b1d62f ("mm/gup: small refactoring: simplify
try_grab_page()") which refactors try_grab_page() to call
try_grab_compound_head() with refs=1. The refactor commit is causing
pin_user_pages() to return -ENOMEM when we try to pin one user page that
is migratable and not in the movable zone. Previously, try_grab_page()
didn't check if the page was pinnable for FOLL_PIN. To match the same
functionality, this fix adds the check `refs > 1 &&` to skip the call to
is_pinnable_page().

This issue is reproducible with the Pixel 6 on the 5.15 LTS kernel. Here
is the call stack to reproduce the -ENOMEM error:
