This will pin pages or leave them unaltered rather than getting a ref on them as appropriate to the iterator. The pages need to be pinned for DIO rather than having refs taken on them to prevent VM copy-on-write from malfunctioning during a concurrent fork() (the result of the I/O could otherwise end up being visible to/affected by the child process).
