Subject: [PATCH] mm/gup: fix comments to pin_user_pages_*()
pin_user_pages API forces FOLL_PIN in gup_flags, which means that the API
requires struct page **pages to be provided (not NULL). However, the
comment to pin_user_pages() clearly allows for passing in a NULL @pages
argument.
Remove the incorrect comments, and add WARN_ON_ONCE(!pages) calls to
enforce the API.
It has been independently spotted by Minchan Kim and confirmed with
