You seem to confused totally unrelated things.
For short-term pins, that is pin_user_pages without FOLL_LONGTERM there
would never be any point in using a dmabuf as the pin is transient. For
long-term pin dmabufs in the block layer absolutely make sense, and I
wish io_uring would have just implemented them from the start instead of
the current fixed buffers that are not quite as useful by not
pre-mapping DMA and not supporting P2P.
