mm/khugepaged: fix GUP-fast interaction by sending IPI
commit 2ba99c5e08812494bc57f319fb562f527d9bacd8 upstream.
Since commit 70cbc3cc78a99 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP
collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to
ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.
However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is
not concurrently freed. Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses
semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.
