No, the parameters are that way intentionally.  The explanation is in
the svn log:

Always ask get_user_pages() for writable pages, but pass force=1 if
the consumer has only asked for read-only pages.  This fixes a problem
registering memory that has just been allocated but not touched yet,
while allowing registration of read-only memory to continue to work.
