Subject: [PATCH v3 15/35] 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.
