FOLL_LONGTERM is a special case of FOLL_PIN. It suggests a pin which is
going to be given to hardware and can't move. It would truncate CMA
permanently and should be excluded.

In gup slow path, where
__gup_longterm_locked->check_and_migrate_cma_pages() handles FOLL_LONGTERM,
but in fast path, there lacks such a check, which means a possible leak of
CMA page to longterm pinned.

Place a check in try_grab_compound_head() in the fast path to fix the leak,
and if FOLL_LONGTERM happens on CMA, it will fall back to slow path to
migrate the page.

Some note about the check:
Huge page's subpages have the same migrate type due to either
allocation from a free_list[] or alloc_contig_range() with param
MIGRATE_MOVABLE. So it is enough to check on a single subpage
by is_migrate_cma_page(subpage)
