Avoid long term pinning for Coherent device type pages. This could
interfere with their own device memory manager. For now, we are just
returning error for PIN_LONGTERM Coherent device type pages. Eventually,
these type of pages will get migrated to system memory, once the device
migration pages support is added.

If there is a mix of ZONE_MOVABLE and device pages the return value (ret) will
be subsequently lost here:

        if (!list_empty(&movable_page_list)) {
                ret = migrate_pages(&movable_page_list, alloc_migration_target,
                                    NULL, (unsigned long)&mtc, MIGRATE_SYNC,
                                    MR_LONGTERM_PIN, NULL);
                if (ret && !list_empty(&movable_page_list))
                        putback_movable_pages(&movable_page_list);
        }

Which won't actually cause any problems, but it will lead to the GUP getting
retried unnecessarily. I do still intend to address this with a series to
migrate pages instead though, so I think this is ok for now as it's an unlikely
corner case anyway. Therefore feel tree to add the below when you repost:
