does it include loop counters like i and j?

As I understand calling get_user_pages ensures that pages are not going to be
swapped or freed. I agree that it provides enough protection for the memory.
IO mappings are the problem. As you mentioned few mails ago get_page would
likely crash for such pages. AFAIK increasing reference count for VMA could be
a reliable mechanism for protecting the memory from being freed.
The problem is that VMA has no reference counters in it. Calling open ops
will protect the memory. However it will not protect VMA structure from
being freed!
Analyze following scenario:
- mmap -> returns userptr
- qbuf (userptr)
- unmap (userptr)
- dqbuf
The VMA will be destroyed at unmap but memory will not be released.
The reason is that open ops was called at qbuf.
In order to free the memory the VB2 has to call close ops. This
callback takes pointer to VMA as an argument. The original VMA
cannot be used here because it is not longer valid.
Therefore VMA has to be copied at qbuf operation. The function vb2_get_vma
is used for this purpose.
The workaround could be dropping support for IO mappings in VB2.
However it will handicap all s5p media drivers because mapping
produced by dma_mmap_coherent (aka writecombine) are IO mapping.
As result s5p-fimc could no longer create a pipeline with s5p-mfc.
Introducing DMABUF to V4L is a good alternative but only if exporting
is supported.
For now I think it is better to keep support for IO mappings. At least
until DMA mapping redesign and DMABUF exporting in V4L is merged.

what do you think about using function vb2_dc_put_dirty_page which
would call both set_page_dirty_lock and put_page ?

right ... thanks for spotting it.
Fortunately, that put_userptr does not check this counter. Otherwise it would
be a memleak :).
