A bad pointer dereference.

pgd -> pud -> user 1G hugepage
huge_pte_offset() wants to return NULL or pud (point to the entry), but it maybe
return the a bad pointer of the user 1G hugepage.

I hope the hugetlb and mm maintainers could give some other options if they
approve this bug.
We change the code from
	if (pud_huge(*pud) || !pud_present(*pud))
to
	if (pud_huge(*pud)
		return (pte_t *)pud;
	busy loop for 500ms
	if (!pud_present(*pud))
		return (pte_t *)pud;
and the panic will be hit quickly.

ARM64 has already use READ/WRITE_ONCE to access the pagetable, look at this
commit 20a004e7 (arm64: mm: Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page tables).

The root cause is: 'if (pud_huge(*pud) || !pud_present(*pud))' read entry from
pud twice and the *pud maybe change in a race, so if we only read the pud once.
I use READ_ONCE here is just for safe, to prevents the complier mischief if
possible.

I'll add comments in v2.

This bug is from hugetlb core, we could trigger it in other usages even if the
latest KVM won't.
