Mel Gorman 18022c5d86 mm: add get_kernel_page[s] for pinning of kernel addresses for I/O 
This patch adds two new APIs get_kernel_pages() and get_kernel_page() that
may be used to pin a vector of kernel addresses for IO.  The initial user
is expected to be NFS for allowing pages to be written to swap using
aops->direct_IO().  Strictly speaking, swap-over-NFS only needs to pin one
page for IO but it makes sense to express the API in terms of a vector and
add a helper for pinning single pages.
