    tee: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages() · 4300cd63
    John Hubbard authored
    This code was using get_user_pages*(), in a "Case 2" scenario
    (DMA/RDMA), using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's
    time to convert the get_user_pages*() + put_page() calls to
    pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.
    
    Factor out a new, small release_registered_pages() function, in
    order to consolidate the logic for discerning between
    TEE_SHM_USER_MAPPED and TEE_SHM_KERNEL_MAPPED pages. This also
    absorbs the kfree() call that is also required there.
    
    There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small
    part of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and
    file systems' use of those pages.
