Subject[PATCH 05/14] mm: remove some BUG checks wrt mmap_sem
Date
This patch is a collection of hacks that shamelessly remove
mmap_sem state checks in order to not have to teach file_operations
about range locking; for thp and huge pagecache: By dropping the
rwsem_is_locked checks in zap_pmd_range() and zap_pud_range() we can
avoid having to teach file_operations about mmrange. For example in
xfs: iomap_dio_rw() is called by .read_iter file callbacks.

We also avoid mmap_sem trylock in vm_insert_page(): The rules to
this function state that mmap_sem must be acquired by the caller:

- for write if used in f_op->mmap() (by far the most common case)
- for read if used from vma_op->fault()(with VM_MIXEDMAP)

The only exception is:
mmap_vmcore()
remap_vmalloc_range_partial()
mmap_vmcore()

But there is no concurrency here, thus mmap_sem is not held.
After auditing the kernel, the following drivers use the fault
path and correctly set VM_MIXEDMAP):

.fault = etnaviv_gem_fault
.fault = udl_gem_fault
tegra_bo_fault()

As such, drop the reader trylock BUG_ON() for the common case.
This avoids having file_operations know about mmranges, as
mmap_sem is held during, mmap() for example.
