[PATCH v1 6/7] mm/ksm: convert break_ksm() to use walk_page_range_vma()

[David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx>]

FOLL_MIGRATION exists only for the purpose of break_ksm(), and
actually, there is not even the need to wait for the migration to
finish, we only want to know if we're dealing with a KSM page.

Using follow_page() just to identify a KSM page overcomplicates GUP
code. Let's use walk_page_range_vma() instead, because we don't actually
care about the page itself, we only need to know a single property --
no need to even grab a reference on the page.

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 ~4% (old: ~5010 MiB/s, new: ~4800 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now.
