mm/mprotect: delete pmd_none_or_clear_bad_unless_trans_huge()

commit 670ddd8cdcbd1d07a4571266ae3517f821728c3a upstream.

change_pmd_range() had special pmd_none_or_clear_bad_unless_trans_huge(),
required to avoid "bad" choices when setting automatic NUMA hinting under
mmap_read_lock(); but most of that is already covered in pte_offset_map()
now.  change_pmd_range() just wants a pmd_none() check before wasting time
on MMU notifiers, then checks on the read-once _pmd value to work out
what's needed for huge cases.  If change_pte_range() returns -EAGAIN to
retry if pte_offset_map_lock() fails, nothing more special is needed.

[ Background: It was reported that a bad pmd is seen when automatic NUMA
  balancing is marking page table entries as prot_numa:

    This is due to a race condition between change_prot_numa() and
    THP migration because the kernel doesn't check is_swap_pmd() and
    pmd_trans_huge() atomically:

    change_prot_numa()                      THP migration
    ======================================================================
    - change_pmd_range()
    -> is_swap_pmd() returns false,
    meaning it's not a PMD migration
    entry.
                                      - do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
                                      -> migrate_misplaced_page() sets
                                         migration entries for the THP.
    - change_pmd_range()
    -> pmd_none_or_clear_bad_unless_trans_huge()
    -> pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() returns false
    - pmd_none_or_clear_bad_unless_trans_huge()
    -> pmd_bad() returns true for the migration entry!

  The upstream commit 670ddd8cdcbd ("mm/mprotect: delete
  pmd_none_or_clear_bad_unless_trans_huge()") closes this race condition
  by checking is_swap_pmd() and pmd_trans_huge() atomically.

  Backporting note:
    Unlike the mainline, pte_offset_map_lock() does not check if the pmd
    entry is a migration entry or a hugepage; acquires PTL unconditionally
    instead of returning failure. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the
    !is_swap_pmd() && !pmd_trans_huge() && !pmd_devmap() check before
    acquiring the PTL.

    After acquiring the lock, open-code the semantics of
    pte_offset_map_lock() in the mainline kernel; change_pte_range() fails
    if the pmd value has changed. This requires adding pmd_old parameter
    (pmd_t value that is read before calling the function) to
    change_pte_range(). ]
