mm, x86: get_user_pages() for dax mappings



A dax mapping establishes a pte with _PAGE_DEVMAP set when the driver
has established a devm_memremap_pages() mapping, i.e.  when the pfn_t
return from ->direct_access() has PFN_DEV and PFN_MAP set.  Later, when
encountering _PAGE_DEVMAP during a page table walk we lookup and pin a
struct dev_pagemap instance to keep the result of pfn_to_page() valid
until put_page().
