drivers/IB,qib: optimize mmap_sem usage
The driver uses mmap_sem for both pinned_vm accounting and get_user_pages(). Because rdma drivers might want to use gup_longterm() in the future we still need some sort of mmap_sem serialization (as opposed to removing it entirely by using gup_fast()). Now that pinned_vm is atomic the writer lock can therefore be converted to reader. This also fixes a bug that __qib_get_user_pages was not taking into account the current value of pinned_vm.
