During collapse, in a few places we check to see if a given small page has
any unaccounted references. If the refcount on the page doesn't match our
expectations, it must be there is an unknown user concurrently interested
in the page, and so it's not safe to move the contents elsewhere.
However, the unaccounted pins are likely an ephemeral state.
In this situation, MADV_COLLAPSE returns -EINVAL when it should return
-EAGAIN. This could cause userspace to conclude that the syscall
failed, when it in fact could succeed by retrying.
