Yes. I still need to answer the question of whether mapping invalidation triggers longterm pin holders to relinquish their hold, but that's a problem regardless of whether gup-fast is supported or not.It does not, GUP users do not interact with addres_space or mmu notifiers
Ok, but the SIGKILL from the memory_failure() will drop the pin? Can memory_failure() find the right processes to kill if the memory registration has been passed by SCM_RIGHTS?
