block, fs: convert most Direct IO cases to FOLL_PIN

From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>

Hi,

The feedback on the RFC [1] prompted me to convert the core Direct IO
subsystem all at once. The key differences here, as compared to the RFC,
are:

    * no dio_w_*() wrapper routines,

    * no CONFIG parameter; and

    * new iov_iter_pin_pages*() routines that pin pages without
      affecting other callers of iov_iter_get_pages*(). Those other
      callers (ceph, rds, net, ...) can be converted separately.

Also, many pre-existing callers of unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock() are
wrong, and this series adds a few more callers. So readers may naturally
wonder about that. I recently had a very productive discussion with Ted
Ts'o, who suggested a way to fix the problem, and I'm going to implement
it, next. However, I think it's best to do that fix separately from
this, probably layered on top, although it could go either before or
after.

As part of fixing the "get_user_pages() + file-backed memory" problem
[2], and to support various COW-related fixes as well [3], we need to
convert the Direct IO code from get_user_pages_fast(), to
pin_user_pages_fast(). Because pin_user_pages*() calls require a
corresponding call to unpin_user_page(), the conversion is more
elaborate than just substitution.

In the main patch (patch 4) I'm a little concerned about the
bio_map_user_iov() changes, because the sole caller,
blk_rq_map_user_iov(), has either a direct mapped case or a copy from
user case, and I'm still not sure that these are properly kept separate,
from an unpin pages point of view. So a close look there by reviewers
would be welcome.

Testing: this needs lots of filesystem testing.

In this patchset:

Patches 1, 2: provide a few new routines that will be used by
conversion: pin_user_page(), iov_iter_pin_pages(),
iov_iter_pin_pages_alloc().

Patch 3: provide a few asserts that only user space pages are being
passed in for Direct IO. (This patch could be folded into another
patch.)

Patch 4: Convert all Direct IO callers that use iomap, or
blockdev_direct_IO(), or bio_iov_iter_get_pages().

Patch 5, 6: convert a few other callers to the new system: NFS-Direct,
and fuse.

This is based on linux-next (next-20220225). I've also stashed it here:
