Introduce pin_user_pages_locked(), which is nearly identical to

FOLL_GET.
Forget to ask, is it fine to add this new pin_user_pages_locked() in
Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst ?
I wasn't planning on maintaining a rigorous list of all of the pin_user_page*()
API calls, in pin_user_pages.rst. Each call is documented in gup.c, for that.
The .rst is there to help explain things at a slighly higher abstraction level.
