mm: Fix false-positive VM_BUG_ON() in page_cache_{get,add}_speculative()

0day testing by Fengguang Wu triggered this crash while running Trinity:

  kernel BUG at include/linux/pagemap.h:151!
  ...
  CPU: 0 PID: 458 Comm: trinity-c0 Not tainted 4.11.0-rc2-00251-g2947ba0 #1
  ...
  Call Trace:
   __get_user_pages_fast()
   get_user_pages_fast()
   get_futex_key()
   futex_requeue()
   do_futex()
   SyS_futex()
   do_syscall_64()
   entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path()

It' VM_BUG_ON() due to false-negative in_atomic(). We call
page_cache_get_speculative() with disabled local interrupts.
It should be atomic enough.

So let's check for disabled interrupts in the VM_BUG_ON() condition
too, to resolve this.

( This got triggered by the conversion of the x86 GUP code to the
  generic GUP code. )
