mm: Make generic weak get_user_pages_fast and EXPORT_GPL it
Out of line get_user_pages_fast fallback implementation, make it a weak symbol, get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_GET_USER_PAGES_FAST. Export the symbol to modules so lguest can use it. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
