Christoph Hellwig 446f062bf0 MIPS: use the generic get_user_pages_fast code
The mips code is mostly equivalent to the generic one, minus various
bugfixes and an arch override for gup_fast_permitted.

Note that this defines ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL for mips as mips has
pte_special and pte_mkspecial implemented and used in the existing gup
code.  They are no-op stubs, though which makes me a little unsure if this
is really right thing to do.

Note that this also adds back a missing cpu_has_dc_aliases check for
__get_user_pages_fast, which the old code was only doing for
get_user_pages_fast.  This clearly looks like an oversight, as any
condition that makes get_user_pages_fast unsafe also applies to
__get_user_pages_fast.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
