Longterm pinning of FS DAX pages should already be disallowed by
various pXX_devmap checks. However a future change will cause these
checks to be invalid for FS DAX pages so make
folio_is_longterm_pinnable() return false for FS DAX pages.

Nit: I'd consistently use "mm/gup:" as prefix for GUP-related patches. (similarly, mm/huge_memory and mm/rmap in the other patches)
