Changes since v2:

-- Absorbed more dirty page handling logic into the put_user_page*(), and
    handled some page releasing loops in infiniband more thoroughly, as per
    Jason Gunthorpe's feedback.

-- Fixed a bug in the put_user_pages*() routines' loops (thanks to
    Ralph Campbell for spotting it).

Changes since v1:

-- Renamed release_user_pages*() to put_user_pages*(), from Jan's feedback.

-- Removed the goldfish.c changes, and instead, only included a single
    user (infiniband) of the new functions. That is because goldfish.c no
    longer has a name collision (it has a release_user_pages() routine), and
    also because infiniband exercises both the put_user_page() and
    put_user_pages*() paths.

-- Updated links to discussions and plans, so as to be sure to include
    bounce buffers, thanks to Jerome's feedback.

Also:

-- Dennis, thanks for your earlier review, and I have not yet added your
    Reviewed-by tag, because this revision changes the things that you had
    previously reviewed, thus potentially requiring another look.

This spin looks fine to me.
