    mm/khugepaged: invoke MMU notifiers in shmem/file collapse paths
    
    commit f268f6cf875f3220afc77bdd0bf1bb136eb54db9 upstream.
    
    Any codepath that zaps page table entries must invoke MMU notifiers to
    ensure that secondary MMUs (like KVM) don't keep accessing pages which
    aren't mapped anymore.  Secondary MMUs don't hold their own references to
    pages that are mirrored over, so failing to notify them can lead to page
    use-after-free.
    
    I'm marking this as addressing an issue introduced in commit f3f0e1d2150b
    ("khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pages"), but most of
    the security impact of this only came in commit 27e1f8273113 ("khugepaged:
    enable collapse pmd for pte-mapped THP"), which actually omitted flushes
    for the removal of present PTEs, not just for the removal of empty page
    tables.

    [manual backport: this code was refactored from two copies into a common
    helper between 5.15 and 6.0;
    pmd collapse for PTE-mapped THP was only added in 5.4;
    MMU notifier API changed between 4.19 and 5.4]
