For pages that were retained via get_user_pages*(), release those pages via the new put_user_page*() routines, instead of via put_page() or release_pages().
This is part a tree-wide conversion, as described in commit fc1d8e7cca2d ("mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions").
Note that this effectively changes the code's behavior in qp_release_pages(): it now ultimately calls set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of set_page_dirty(). This is probably more accurate.
As Christophe Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it hangs off." [1]
