mm/gup: remove vmas parameter from get_user_pages_remote()
The only instances of get_user_pages_remote() invocations which used the
vmas parameter were for a single page which can instead simply look up the
VMA directly. In particular:-
- __update_ref_ctr() looked up the VMA but did nothing with it so we simply
remove it.
- __access_remote_vm() was already using vma_lookup() when the original
lookup failed so by doing the lookup directly this also de-duplicates the
code.
We are able to perform these VMA operations as we already hold the
mmap_lock in order to be able to call get_user_pages_remote().
As part of this work we add get_user_page_vma_remote() which abstracts the
VMA lookup, error handling and decrementing the page reference count should
the VMA lookup fail.
This forms part of a broader set of patches intended to eliminate the vmas
parameter altogether.
