When pages are pinned they can be faulted in userland and migrated, and
they can be faulted right in kernel without migration.
In either case, the pinned pages must end-up being pinnable (not movable).
Add a new test to gup_test, to help verify that the gup/pup
(get_user_pages() / pin_user_pages()) behavior with respect to pinnable
and movable pages is reasonable and correct. Specifically, provide a
way to:
1) Verify that only "pinnable" pages are pinned. This is checked
automatically for you.
2) Verify that gup/pup performance is reasonable. This requires
comparing benchmarks between doing gup/pup on pages that have been
pre-faulted in from user space, vs. doing gup/pup on pages that are not
faulted in until gup/pup time (via FOLL_TOUCH). This decision is
controlled with the new -z command line option.
