mm, gup: prevent pmd checking race in follow_pmd_mask()
mmap_sem will be read locked when calling follow_pmd_mask(). But this
cannot prevent PMD from being changed for all cases when PTL is
unlocked, for example, from pmd_trans_huge() to pmd_none() via
MADV_DONTNEED. So it is possible for the pmd_present() check in
follow_pmd_mask() to encounter an invalid PMD. This may cause an
incorrect VM_BUG_ON() or an infinite loop. Fix this by reading the PMD
entry into a local variable with READ_ONCE() and checking the local
variable and pmd_none() in the retry loop.
As Kirill pointed out, with PTL unlocked, the *pmd may be changed under
us, so reading it directly again and again may incur weird bugs. So
although using *pmd directly other than for pmd_present() checking may
be safe, it is still better to replace them to read *pmd once and check
the local variable multiple times.
When PTL unlocked, replace all *pmd with local variable was suggested by
Kirill.
