[RFC PATCH v3 1/8] mm/gup: break out gup_fill_pages() helper

__get_user_pages() fills pages[] and flushes each page's caches in an
open-coded loop.

Move it into a gup_fill_pages() helper, which the follow_page_mask()
call chain can then use to fill its own pages[] slots.

No functional changes intended.
