[media] mm: Provide new get_vaddr_frames() helper
Provide new function get_vaddr_frames(). This function maps virtual addresses from given start and fills given array with page frame numbers of the corresponding pages. If given start belongs to a normal vma, the function grabs reference to each of the pages to pin them in memory. If start belongs to VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP vma, we don't touch page structures. Caller must make sure pfns aren't reused for anything else while he is using them. This function is created for various drivers to simplify handling of their buffers.

+ * @nr_frames: number of pages / pfns from start to map
+ * @write: whether pages will be written to by the caller
+ * @force: whether to force write access even if user mapping is
+ * readonly. See description of the same argument of
+ get_user_pages().
+ * @vec: structure which receives pages / pfns of the addresses mapped.
+ * It should have space for at least nr_frames entries.
+ *
+ * This function maps virtual addresses from @start and fills @vec structure
+ * with page frame numbers or page pointers to corresponding pages (choice
+ * depends on the type of the vma underlying the virtual address). If @start
+ * belongs to a normal vma, the function grabs reference to each of the pages
+ * to pin them in memory. If @start belongs to VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP vma, we don't
+ * touch page structures and the caller must make sure pfns aren't reused for
+ * anything else while he is using them.
+ *
+ * The function returns number of pages mapped which may be less than
+ * @nr_frames. In particular we stop mapping if there are more vmas of
+ * different type underlying the specified range of virtual addresses.
+ * When the function isn't able to map a single page, it returns error.
+ *
+ * This function takes care of grabbing mmap_sem as necessary.
