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.
