Revert "mm/gup: small refactoring: simplify try_grab_page()"
This reverts commit 54d516b1d62ff8f17cee2da06e5e4706a0d00b8a That commit did a refactoring that effectively combined fast and slow gup paths (again). And that was again incorrect, for two reasons: a) Fast gup and slow gup get reference counts on pages in different ways and with different goals: see Linus' writeup in commit cd1adf1b63a1 ("Revert "mm/gup: remove try_get_page(), call try_get_compound_head() directly""), and b) try_grab_compound_head() also has a specific check for "FOLL_LONGTERM && !is_pinned(page)", that assumes that the caller can fall back to slow gup. This resulted in new failures, as recently report by Will McVicker [1]. But (a) has problems too, even though they may not have been reported yet. So just revert this.
