When FOLL_PIN is passed to __get_user_pages() the page list must be put
back using unpin_user_pages() otherwise the page pin reference persists
in a corrupted state.
There are two places in the unwind of __gup_longterm_locked() that put
the pages back without checking. Normally on error this function would
return the partial page list making this the caller's responsibility,
but in these two cases the caller is not allowed to see these pages at
all.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
