get_user_page, get_user_pages_fast用於獲取用戶buffer所mapped的頁。
/**
* get_user_pages_fast() - pin user pages in memory
* @start: starting user address
* @nr_pages: number of pages from start to pin
* @write: whether pages will be written to
* @pages: array that receives pointers to the pages pinned.
* Should be at least nr_pages long.
*
* Attempt to pin user pages in memory without taking mm->mmap_sem. <==不需要獲取鎖， get_user_pages_fast調用這個函數進行獲取當前進程的頁，這個函數不鎖mm的
* If not successful, it will fall back to taking the lock and
* calling get_user_pages().
*
* Returns number of pages pinned. This may be fewer than the number
* requested. If nr_pages is 0 or negative, returns 0. If no pages
* were pinned, returns -errno.
