mm/khugepaged: write-lock VMA while collapsing a huge page
Protect VMA from concurrent page fault handler while collapsing a huge page. Page fault handler needs a stable PMD to use PTL and relies on per-VMA lock to prevent concurrent PMD changes. pmdp_collapse_flush(), set_huge_pmd() and collapse_and_free_pmd() can modify a PMD, which will not be detected by a page fault handler without proper locking. Before this patch, page tables can be walked under any one of the mmap_lock, the mapping lock, and the anon_vma lock; so when khugepaged unlinks and frees page tables, it must ensure that all of those either are locked or don't exist. This patch adds a fourth lock under which page tables can be traversed, and so khugepaged must also lock out that one.
