Maybe more accurate but it doesn't work for mm_iommu_unpin(). As I'm
checking mm_iommu_unpin() gets called from RCU callback which is executed
interrupt context and you cannot lock pages from such context. So you need
to queue work from the RCU callback and then do the real work from the
workqueue...
