Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements

These are made when I explore codes in mm/gup.c.

v1->v2:
- In patch 1, I carelessly copied the fault_in_readable() as
  fault_in_writeable(). Thanks to Yanjun for pointing it out.

- In patch 2, I copied the code in follow_page_pte() to
  __get_user_pages() directly w/o adjustment which is done but not
  merged to patch. That failed testing taken by lkp test robot, thanks
  for reporting. 

Baoquan He (7):
  mm/gup: fix wrongly calculated returned value in
    fault_in_safe_writeable()
  mm/gup: check if both GUP_GET and GUP_PIN are set in
    __get_user_pages() earlier
  mm/gup: Fix the outdated code comments above get_user_pages_unlocked()
  mm/gup: remove gup_fast_pgd_leaf() and clean up the relevant codes
  x86/mm: remove pgd_leaf definition in arch
  x86/mm: remove p4d_leaf definition
  mm/pgtable: remove unneeded pgd_devmap()
