[PATCH v4 03/10] mm/gup: fail get_user_pages for LONGTERM dev coherent type

Avoid long term pinning for Coherent device type pages. This could
interfere with their own device memory manager. For now, we are just
returning error for PIN_LONGTERM Coherent device type pages. Eventually,
these type of pages will get migrated to system memory, once the device
migration pages support is added.
