Yes.

I also don't object to Christoph's additional request to refactor and
rename around iov_iter_get_pages2() and such, but this version here is
perfectly good, so please feel free to add:

Reviewed-by: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>

Looking ahead, interestingly enough, it turns out that this approach to
the wrappers is really pretty close to what I posted in patch 4/7 of my
"convert most filesystems to pin_user_pages_fast()" series [1]. Instead
of passing gup_flags through, I tried to avoid that (because FOLL_PIN
is, as a mild design preference, supposed to remain internal to gup.c),
but given that you need to do it, I think I can just build on top of
your approach, and pass in FOLL_PIN via your new gup_flags arg.

Along those lines, I've copied you in on "New topic branch for block + 
gup work?", let's see what happens over there.
