mm/gup: simplify the external interface functions and consolidate invariants
The GUP family of functions have a complex, but fairly well defined, set
of invariants for their arguments. Currently these are sprinkled about,
sometimes in duplicate through many functions.
Internally we don't follow all the invariants that the external interface
has to follow, so place these checks directly at the exported interface.
This ensures the internal functions never reach a violated invariant.
Remove the duplicated invariant checks.
The end result is to make these functions fully internal:
__get_user_pages_locked()
internal_get_user_pages_fast()
__gup_longterm_locked()
And all the other functions call directly into one of these.
