[12/14] mm: multi-gen LRU: walk_pte_range() use pte_offset_map_maywrite_nolock()

Commit Message

In walk_pte_range(), we may modify the pte entry after holding the ptl, so
convert it to using pte_offset_map_maywrite_nolock(). At this time, the
write lock of mmap_lock is not held, and the pte_same() check is not
performed after the ptl held, so we should get pmdval and do pmd_same()
check to ensure the stability of pmd entry.
