Lorenzo Stoakes 6a1960b8a8 mm/gup: adapt get_user_page_vma_remote() to never return NULL
get_user_pages_remote() will never return 0 except in the case of
FOLL_NOWAIT being specified, which we explicitly disallow.

This simplifies error handling for the caller and avoids the awkwardness
of dealing with both errors and failing to pin.  Failing to pin here is an
error.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
