mm->pinned_vm counts pages of mm's address space that were permanently
pinned in memory by increasing their reference counter. The counter was
introduced by commit bc3e53f682d9 ("mm: distinguish between mlocked and
pinned pages"), while before it locked_vm had been used for such pages.
Obviously, we should reset the counter on fork if !CLONE_VM, just like
we do with locked_vm, but currently we don't. Let's fix it.
