mm/gup: Introduce get_user_pages_remote()

Browse Source 
For protection keys, we need to understand whether protections
should be enforced in software or not.  In general, we enforce
protections when working on our own task, but not when on others.
We call these "current" and "remote" operations.

This patch introduces a new get_user_pages() variant:

        get_user_pages_remote()

Which is a replacement for when get_user_pages() is called on
non-current tsk/mm.

We also introduce a new gup flag: FOLL_REMOTE which can be used
for the "__" gup variants to get this new behavior.

The uprobes is_trap_at_addr() location holds mmap_sem and
calls get_user_pages(current->mm) on an instruction address.  This
makes it a pretty unique gup caller.  Being an instruction access
and also really originating from the kernel (vs. the app), I opted
to consider this a 'remote' access where protection keys will not
be enforced.

Without protection keys, this patch should not change any behavior.
