Subject: [PATCH v1 04/12] mm/rmap: implement make_device_exclusive() using folio_walk instead of rmap walk

We require a writable PTE and only support anonymous folio: we can only
have exactly one PTE pointing at that page, which we can just lookup
using a folio walk, avoiding the rmap walk and the anon VMA lock.

So let's stop doing an rmap walk and perform a folio walk instead, so we
can easily just modify a single PTE and avoid relying on rmap/mapcounts.

We now effectively work on a single PTE instead of multiple PTEs of
a large folio, allowing for conversion of individual PTEs from
non-exclusive to device-exclusive -- note that the other way always
worked on single PTEs.

We can drop the MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE MMU notifier call and document why
that is not required: GUP will already take care of the
MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE call if required (there is already a device-exclusive
entry) when not finding a present PTE and having to trigger a fault and
ending up in remove_device_exclusive_entry(). Note that the PTE is
always writable, and we can always create a writable-device-exclusive
entry.

With this change, device-exclusive is fully compatible with THPs /
large folios. We still require PMD-sized THPs to get PTE-mapped, and
supporting PMD-mapped THP (without the PTE-remapping) is a different
endeavour that might not be worth it at this point.

This gets rid of the "folio_mapcount()" usage and let's us fix ordinary
rmap walks (migration/swapout) next. Spell out that messing with the
mapcount is wrong and must be fixed.
