No they do not all comes from GUP for see various callers
of bio_check_pages_dirty() for instance iomap_dio_zero()
I have carefully tracked down all this and i did not do
anyconvertion just for the fun of it :)

Well, the point is _should_ not necessarily do. iomap_dio_zero adds the
ZERO_PAGE, which we by definition don't need to refcount. So we can
mark this bio BIO_NO_PAGE_REF safely after removing the get_page there.
Note that the equivalent in the old direct I/O cod...

[PATCH 03/12] block: bio_release_pages: use flags arg instead of bool
From: John Hubbard <jhubbard at nvidia.com>
In commit d241a95f3514 ("block: optionally mark pages dirty in
bio_release_pages"), new "bool mark_dirty" argument was added to
bio_release_pages.
In upcoming work, another bool argument (to indicate that the pages came
from get_user_pages) is going to be added. That's one bool too many,
because it's not desirable have
