  From: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com>

Malloc libraries, like jemalloc and tcalloc, take decisions on when
to call madvise independently from the code in the main application.

This sometimes results in the application page faulting on an address,
right after the malloc library has shot down the backing memory with
MADV_DONTNEED.

Usually this is harmless, because we always have some 4kB pages
sitting around to satisfy a page fault. However, with hugetlbfs
systems often allocate only the exact number of huge pages that
the application wants.

Due to TLB batching, hugetlbfs MADV_DONTNEED will free pages outside of
any lock taken on the page fault path, which can open up the following
race condition:

       CPU 1                            CPU 2

       MADV_DONTNEED
       unmap page
       shoot down TLB entry
                                       page fault
                                       fail to allocate a huge page
                                       killed with SIGBUS
       free page

Fix that race by pulling the locking from __unmap_hugepage_final_range
into helper functions called from zap_page_range_single. This ensures
page faults stay locked out of the MADV_DONTNEED VMA until the
huge pages have actually been freed.
