gup prohibits users from calling get_user_pages() with FOLL_PIN.  But it
allows users to call get_user_pages() with FOLL_LONGTERM only.  It seems
insensible.

Since FOLL_LONGTERM is a stricter case of FOLL_PIN, we should prohibit
users from calling get_user_pages() with FOLL_LONGTERM while not with
FOLL_PIN.

mm/gup_benchmark.c used to be the only user who did this improperly.
But it has been fixed by moving to use pin_user_pages().
