Jason Gunthorpe 5d8ddc819c vfio: Use get_user_pages_longterm correctly
commit bb94b55af3 upstream.

The patch noted in the fixes below converted get_user_pages_fast() to
get_user_pages_longterm(), however the two calls differ in a few ways.

First _fast() is documented to not require the mmap_sem, while _longterm()
is documented to need it. Hold the mmap sem as required.

Second, _fast accepts an 'int write' while _longterm uses 'unsigned int
gup_flags', so the expression '!!(prot & IOMMU_WRITE)' is only working by
luck as FOLL_WRITE is currently == 0x1. Use the expected FOLL_WRITE
constant instead.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
