The patch titled
     Subject: vfio: fix FOLL_LONGTERM use, simplify get_user_pages_remote() call
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     vfio-fix-foll_longterm-use-simplify-get_user_pages_remote-call.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: vfio: fix FOLL_LONGTERM use, simplify get_user_pages_remote() call

Update VFIO to take advantage of the recently loosened restriction on
FOLL_LONGTERM with get_user_pages_remote().  Also, now it is possible to
fix a bug: the VFIO caller is logically a FOLL_LONGTERM user, but it
wasn't setting FOLL_LONGTERM.

Also, remove an unnessary pair of calls that were releasing and
reacquiring the mmap_sem.  There is no need to avoid holding mmap_sem just
in order to call page_to_pfn().

Also, now that the the DAX check ("if a VMA is DAX, don't allow long term
pinning") is in the internals of get_user_pages_remote() and
__gup_longterm_locked(), there's no need for it at the VFIO call site.  So
remove it.
