Subject: mm/thp: another PVMW_SYNC fix in page_vma_mapped_walk()

Aha!  Shouldn't that quick scan over pte_none()s make sure that it holds
ptlock in the PVMW_SYNC case?  That too might have been responsible for
BUGs or WARNs in split_huge_page_to_list() or its unmap_page(), though
I've never seen any.
