mm/khugepaged: don't recycle vma pgtable if uffd-wp registered
When we're trying to collapse a 2M huge shmem page, don't retract pgtable
pmd page if it's registered with uffd-wp, because that pgtable could have
pte markers installed. Recycling of that pgtable means we'll lose the pte
markers. That could cause data loss for an uffd-wp enabled application on
shmem.
Instead of disabling khugepaged on these files, simply skip retracting
these special VMAs, then the page cache can still be merged into a huge
thp, and other mm/vma can still map the range of file with a huge thp when
proper.
Note that checking VM_UFFD_WP needs to be done with mmap_sem held for
write, that avoids race like:

========== ===========
check VM_UFFD_WP, not set
UFFDIO_REGISTER with uffd-wp on shmem
wr-protect some pages (install markers)
take mmap_sem write lock
erase pmd and free pmd page
--> pte markers are dropped unnoticed!
