Steven Price c235c4fc52 mm: pagewalk: Fix race between unmap and page walker
[ Upstream commit 8782fb61cc848364e1e1599d76d3c9dd58a1cc06 ]

The mmap lock protects the page walker from changes to the page tables
during the walk.  However a read lock is insufficient to protect those
areas which don't have a VMA as munmap() detaches the VMAs before
downgrading to a read lock and actually tearing down PTEs/page tables.

For users of walk_page_range() the solution is to simply call pte_hole()
immediately without checking the actual page tables when a VMA is not
present. We now never call __walk_page_range() without a valid vma.

For walk_page_range_novma() the locking requirements are tightened to
require the mmap write lock to be taken, and then walking the pgd
directly with 'no_vma' set.

This in turn means that all page walkers either have a valid vma, or
it's that special 'novma' case for page table debugging.  As a result,
all the odd '(!walk->vma && !walk->no_vma)' tests can be removed.
