Subject: [PATCH] mm: gup: fix infinite loop within __get_longterm_locked

We can run into an infinite loop in __get_longterm_locked() when
collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() finds only folios that are isolated
from the LRU or were never added to the LRU.  This can happen when all
folios to be pinned are never added to the LRU, for example when
vm_ops->fault allocated pages using cma_alloc() and never added them to
the LRU.

Fix it by simply taking a look at the list in the single caller, to see if
anything was added.
