Add BIO_PAGE_PINNED to indicate that the pages in a bio are pinned
(FOLL_PIN) and that the pin will need removing.

Notes:
    ver #9)
     - Only consider pinning in bio_set_cleanup_mode().  Ref'ing pages in
       struct bio is going away.
     - page_put_unpin() is removed; call unpin_user_page() and put_page()
       directly.
     - Use bio_release_page() in __bio_release_pages().
     - BIO_PAGE_PINNED and BIO_PAGE_REFFED can't both be set, so use if-else
       when testing both of them.
    
    ver #8)
     - Move the infrastructure to clean up pinned pages to this patch [hch].
     - Put BIO_PAGE_PINNED before BIO_PAGE_REFFED as the latter should
       probably be removed at some point.  FOLL_PIN can then be renumbered
       first.

The subject is odd when this doesn't actually switch anything,
but just adds the infrastructure to unpin pages.

At this point I'd be tempted to just open code these two lines
instead of adding a helper, but I can live with the helper if you
prefer it.

Otherwise looks good:

Neatly avoiding any use of FOLL_PIN or FOLL_GET, good. :)

How about:

	block: Add BIO_PAGE_PINNED and associated infrastructure

I can do that.  It makes sense to put the call to that next to the call to
iov_iter_extract_pages().
