[PATCH RFC v2 10/12] mm/hugetlb: Use hugetlb walker lock in walk_hugetlb_range()

[Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>]

Hugetlb walker lock makes sure the pte_t* won't go away from under us.  One
thing to mention is there're two hugetlb_entry() users that can yield the
thread within hugetlb_entry(), that'll need to add unlock/lock pair around
the yield, meanwhile document hugetlb_entry() explaining the lock for
sleepable hugetlb_entry()s.
