Subject: scsi: st: Convert convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()

This code was using get_user_pages*(), in a "Case 1" scenario (Direct IO),
using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's time to convert the
get_user_pages*() + put_page() calls to pin_user_pages*() +
unpin_user_pages() calls.
There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small part of
fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and file systems'
use of those pages.
Note that this effectively changes the code's behavior as well: it now
ultimately calls set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of SetPageDirty().This is
probably more accurate.
As Christoph Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are
dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it
hangs off." [3]
Also, this deletes one of the two FIXME comments (about refcounting),
because there is nothing wrong with the refcounting at this point.
