mmu notifier replaces pinning as the locking mechanism. Drivers using mmu notifier should not be taking pins. Keep in mind this was all built for HW with real shadow page tables that can do fine grained manipulation. The GPU version of this to instead manipulate a command queue is a big aberration from what was intended.
