FOLL_FORCE is really only for ptrace access. According to commit 707947247e95 ("media: videobuf2-vmalloc: get_userptr: buffers are always writable"), get_vaddr_frames() currently pins all pages writable as a workaround for issues with read-only buffers.
FOLL_FORCE, however, seems to be a legacy leftover as it predates commit 707947247e95 ("media: videobuf2-vmalloc: get_userptr: buffers are always writable"). Let's just remove it.
Once the read-only buffer issue has been resolved, FOLL_WRITE could again be set depending on the DMA direction.
