Subject: mm, dump_page(): do not crash with invalid mapping pointer
We have seen a following problem on a RPi4 with 1G RAM:

---[ end trace 703ac54becfd8094 ]---
Besides the underlying issue with page->mapping containing a bogus value for
some reason, we can see that __dump_page() crashed by trying to read the
pointer at mapping->host, turning a recoverable warning into full Oops.
It can be expected that when page is reported as bad state for some reason, the
pointers there should not be trusted blindly. So this patch treats all data in
__dump_page() that depends on page->mapping as lava, using
probe_kernel_read_strict(). Ideally this would include the dentry->d_parent
recursively, but that would mean changing printk handler for %pd. Chances of
reaching the dentry printing part with an initially bogus mapping pointer
should be rather low, though.
Also prefix printing mapping->a_ops with a description of what is being
printed. In case the value is bogus, %ps will print raw value instead of
the symbol name and then it's not obvious at all that it's printing a_ops.
