File-backed memories are prone to unmap/swap so the ptes are always unstable.
This could lead to userfaultfd-wp information got lost when unmapped or swapped
out on such types of memory, for example, shmem.  To keep such an information
persistent, we will start to use the newly introduced swap-like special ptes to
replace a null pte when those ptes were removed.

Prepare this by handling such a special pte first before it is applied.  Here
a new fault flag FAULT_FLAG_UFFD_WP is introduced.  When this flag is set, it
means the current fault is to resolve a page access (either read or write) to
the uffd-wp special pte.

The handling of this special pte page fault is similar to missing fault, but it
should happen after the pte missing logic since the special pte is designed to
be a swap-like pte.  Meanwhile it should be handled before do_swap_page() so
that the swap core logic won't be confused to see such an illegal swap pte.

This is a slow path of uffd-wp handling, because unmap of wr-protected shmem
ptes should be rare.  So far it should only trigger in two conditions:

  (1) When trying to punch holes in shmem_fallocate(), there will be a
      pre-unmap optimization before evicting the page.  That will create
      unmapped shmem ptes with wr-protected pages covered.

  (2) Swapping out of shmem pages

Because of this, the page fault handling is simplifed too by always assuming
it's a read fault when calling do_fault().  When it's a write fault, it'll
fault again when retry the page access, then do_wp_page() will handle the rest
of message generation and delivery to the userfaultfd.

Disable fault-around for such a special page fault, because the introduced new
flag (FAULT_FLAG_UFFD_WP) only applies to current pte rather than all the pages
around it.  Doing fault-around with the new flag could confuse all the rest of
pages when installing ptes from page cache when there's a cache hit.
