A lockless page table walk should be safe against parallel THP collapse, THP
split and madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)/parallel fault. This patch makes sure kernel
won't reload the pteval when checking for different conditions. The patch also added
a check for pte_present to make sure the kernel is indeed operating
on a PTE and not a pointer to level 0 table page.
The pfn value we find here can be different from the actual pfn on which
machine check happened. This can happen if we raced with a parallel update
of the page table. In such a scenario we end up isolating a wrong pfn. But that
doesn't have any other side effect.
