Out of curiosity, are you planning on having all rdma drivers
use get_user_pages_fast_longterm()? Ie:

hw/mthca/mthca_memfree.c:       ret = get_user_pages_fast(uaddr & PAGE_MASK, 1, FOLL_WRITE, pages);
hw/qib/qib_user_sdma.c:         ret = get_user_pages_fast(addr, j, 0, pages);
I missed that when I change the other qib call to longterm...  :-(

Yes both of these should be changed.  Although I need to look into Jasons
comment WRT the mthca call.
