Note for Jason: the (a) or (b) items are talking about the vfio case, which is one of the two call sites that now use pin_longterm_pages_remote(), and the other one is infiniband:
drivers/infiniband/core/umem_odp.c:646: npages = pin_longterm_pages_remote(owning_process, owning_mm,
This is a mistake, it is not a longterm pin and does not need FOLL_PIN semantics
Jason should weigh in on how he wants this to go, with respect to branching and merging, since it sounds like that will conflict with the hmm branch
I think since you don't need to change this site things should be fine?
