mm/gup: introduce unpin_folio/unpin_folios helpers

Browse Source 
Patch series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for pinning memfd
folios", v16.

Currently, some drivers (e.g, Udmabuf) that want to longterm-pin the
pages/folios associated with a memfd, do so by simply taking a reference
on them.  This is not desirable because the pages/folios may reside in
Movable zone or CMA block.

Therefore, having drivers use memfd_pin_folios() API ensures that the
folios are appropriately pinned via FOLL_PIN for longterm DMA.

This patchset also introduces a few helpers and converts the Udmabuf
driver to use folios and memfd_pin_folios() API to longterm-pin the folios
for DMA.  Two new Udmabuf selftests are also included to test the driver
and the new API.


This patch (of 9):

These helpers are the folio versions of unpin_user_page/unpin_user_pages. 
They are currently only useful for unpinning folios pinned by
memfd_pin_folios() or other associated routines.  However, they could find
new uses in the future, when more and more folio-only helpers are added to
GUP.

We should probably sanity check the folio as part of unpin similar to how
it is done in unpin_user_page/unpin_user_pages but we cannot cleanly do
that at the moment without also checking the subpage.  Therefore, sanity
checking needs to be added to these routines once we have a way to
determine if any given folio is anon-exclusive (via a per folio
AnonExclusive flag).
