[PATCH v1 0/7] mm/ksm: break_ksm() cleanups and fixes

[David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>]

This series cleans up and fixes break_ksm(). In summary, we no longer
use fake write faults to break COW but instead FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE. Further,
we move away from using follow_page() [that we can hopefully remove
completely at one point] and use new walk_page_range_vma() instead.

Fortunately, we can get rid of VM_FAULT_WRITE and FOLL_MIGRATION in common
code now.

Add a selftest to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance. In my setup
(AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge performance
on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in a
performance degradation of ~8% -- 9% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~4800 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now, but it's good to be aware
of the implication.
