Subject: [PATCH v5 12/13] mm: multi-gen LRU: walk_pte_range() use pte_offset_map_rw_nolock()

In walk_pte_range(), we may modify the pte entry after holding the ptl, so
convert it to using pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(). At this time, the
pte_same() check is not performed after the ptl held, so we should get
pmdval and do pmd_same() check to ensure the stability of pmd entry.
