(Commit message majorly collected from Jason Gunthorpe) Reduce the chance of false positive from page_maybe_dma_pinned() by keeping track if the mm_struct has ever been used with pin_user_pages(). This allows cases that might drive up the page ref_count to avoid any penalty from handling dma_pinned pages. Future work is planned, to provide a more sophisticated solution, likely to turn it into a real counter. For now, make it atomic_t but use it as a boolean for simplicity.
