Ok, so the ownership of a dsa was still muddled :-(. Attached is a new
version that goes a little further. It replaces the whole
'mapping_pinned' flag in dsa_area with the 'resowner'. When a mapping is
pinned, it means that 'resowner == NULL'. This is now similar to how the
resowner field and pinning works in dsm.c.
