[PATCH v2 03/11] mm/hmm: do not erase snapshot when a range is invalidated

From: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com>

Users of HMM might be using the snapshot information to do
preparatory step like dma mapping pages to a device before
checking for invalidation through hmm_vma_range_done() so
do not erase that information and assume users will do the
right thing.
