When using vfio to pass through a PCIe device (e.g. a GPU card) that has a huge BAR (e.g. 16GB), a lot of cycles are wasted on memory pinning because PFNs of PCI BAR are not backed by struct page, and the corresponding VMA has flag VM_PFNMAP. With this change, when pinning a region which is a raw PFN mapping, it can skip unnecessary user memory pinning process, and thus, can significantly improve VM's boot up time when passing through devices via VFIO. In my test on a Xeon E5 2.6GHz, the time mapping a 16GB BAR was reduced from about 0.4s to 1.5us.
