Jason wondered why the get_user_pages_fast() path takes references on a
@pgmap object. The rationale was to protect against accessing a 'struct
page' that might be in the process of being removed by the driver, but
he rightly points out that should be solved the same way all gup-fast
synchronization is solved which is invalidate the mapping and let the
gup slow path do @pgmap synchronization [1].

To achieve that it means that new user mappings need to stop being
created and all existing user mappings need to be invalidated.

For device-dax this is already the case as kill_dax() prevents future
faults from installing a pte, and the single device-dax inode
address_space can be trivially unmapped.

The situation is different for filesystem-dax where device pages could
be mapped by any number of inode address_space instances. An initial
thought was to treat the device removal event like a drop_pagecache_sb()
event that walks superblocks and unmaps all inodes. However, Dave points
out that it is not just the filesystem user-mappings that need to react
to global DAX page-unmap events, it is also filesystem metadata
(proposed DAX metadata access), and other drivers (upstream
DM-writecache) that need to react to this event [2].

The only kernel facility that is meant to globally broadcast the loss of
a page (via corruption or surprise remove) is memory_failure(). The
downside of memory_failure() is that it is a pfn-at-a-time interface.
However, the events that would trigger the need to call memory_failure()
over a full PMEM device should be rare. Remove should always be
coordinated by the administrator with the filesystem. If someone force
removes a device from underneath a mounted filesystem the driver assumes
they have a good reason, or otherwise get to keep the pieces. Since
->remove() callbacks can not fail the only option is to trigger the mass
memory_failure().

The mechanism to determine whether memory_failure() triggers at
pmem->remove() time is whether the associated dax_device has an elevated
reference at @pgmap ->kill() time.

With this in place the get_user_pages_fast() path can drop its
half-measure synchronization with an @pgmap reference.
