goldish_pipe: convert to pin_user_pages() and put_user_page()
1. Call the new global pin_user_pages_fast(), from
pin_goldfish_pages().
2. As required by pin_user_pages(), release these pages via
put_user_page(). In this case, do so via put_user_pages_dirty_lock().
That has the side effect of calling set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of
set_page_dirty(). This is probably more accurate.
As Christoph Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are
dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it
hangs off." [1]
Another side effect is that the release code is simplified because the
page[] loop is now in gup.c instead of here, so just delete the local
release_user_pages() entirely, and call put_user_pages_dirty_lock()
directly, instead.
