Subject: [PATCH] memfd: fix F_SEAL_WRITE after shmem huge page allocated

Wangyong reports: after enabling tmpfs filesystem to support
transparent hugepage with the following command:

 echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled

the docker program tries to add F_SEAL_WRITE through the following
command, but it fails unexpectedly with errno EBUSY:

 fcntl(5, F_ADD_SEALS, F_SEAL_WRITE) = -1.

That is because memfd_tag_pins() and memfd_wait_for_pins() were never
updated for shmem huge pages: checking page_mapcount() against
page_count() is hopeless on THP subpages - they need to check
total_mapcount() against page_count() on THP heads only.

Make memfd_tag_pins() (compared > 1) as strict as memfd_wait_for_pins()
(compared != 1): either can be justified, but given the non-atomic
total_mapcount() calculation, it is better now to be strict.  Bear in
mind that total_mapcount() itself scans all of the THP subpages, when
choosing to take an XA_CHECK_SCHED latency break.

Also fix the unlikely xa_is_value() case in memfd_wait_for_pins(): if a
page has been swapped out since memfd_tag_pins(), then its refcount must
have fallen, and so it can safely be untagged.

Andrew, please remove
fix-shmem-huge-page-failed-to-set-f_seal_write-attribute-problem.patch
fix-shmem-huge-page-failed-to-set-f_seal_write-attribute-problem-fix.patch
from mmotm, and replace them by this patch against 5.17-rc5:
wangyong's patch did not handle the case of pte-mapped huge pages, and I
had this one from earlier, when I found the same issue with MFD_HUGEPAGE
(but MFD_HUGEPAGE did not go in, so I didn't post this one, forgetting
the transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled case).
