Although the long term future of get_user_pages_locked() itself is

/* get_user_pages should be phased out in favor of

  * should use get_user_pages because it cannot pass
  * FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY to handle_mm_fault.

Is it just cleanup or actually improves some real (as in hit by someone) scenario?
