Subject: drivers/IB,qib: optimize mmap_sem usage

The driver uses mmap_sem for both pinned_vm accounting and
get_user_pages().  Because rdma drivers might want to use gup_longterm()
in the future we still need some sort of mmap_sem serialization (as
opposed to removing it entirely by using gup_fast()).  Now that pinned_vm
is atomic the writer lock can therefore be converted to reader.

This also fixes a bug that __qib_get_user_pages was not taking into
account the current value of pinned_vm.
