[PATCH v3 24/27] hugetlb/userfaultfd: Only drop uffd-wp special pte if required

As with shmem uffd-wp special ptes, only drop the uffd-wp special swap pte if
unmapping an entire vma or synchronized such that faults can not race with the
unmap operation. This requires passing zap_flags all the way to the lowest
level hugetlb unmap routine: __unmap_hugepage_range.

In general, unmap calls originated in hugetlbfs code will pass the
ZAP_FLAG_DROP_FILE_UFFD_WP flag as synchronization is in place to prevent
faults. The exception is hole punch which will first unmap without any
synchronization. Later when hole punch actually removes the page from the
file, it will check to see if there was a subsequent fault and if so take the
hugetlb fault mutex while unmapping again. This second unmap will pass in
ZAP_FLAG_DROP_FILE_UFFD_WP.

The core justification of "whether to apply ZAP_FLAG_DROP_FILE_UFFD_WP flag
when unmap a hugetlb range" is (IMHO): we should never reach a state when a
page fault could errornously fault in a page-cache page that was wr-protected
to be writable, even in an extremely short period. That could happen if
e.g. we pass ZAP_FLAG_DROP_FILE_UFFD_WP in hugetlbfs_punch_hole() when calling
hugetlb_vmdelete_list(), because if a page fault triggers after that call and
before the remove_inode_hugepages() right after it, the page cache can be
mapped writable again in the small window, which can cause data corruption.
