Remove shmem-specific code from UFFDIO_CONTINUE implementation for
non-huge pages by calling vm_ops->fault().  A new VMF flag,
FAULT_FLAG_NO_USERFAULT_MINOR, is introduced to avoid recursive call to
handle_userfault().

Perhaps instead a flag that says to avoid the userfaultfd minor fault
handler, maybe we should have a flag to indicate that vm_ops->fault()
has been called by UFFDIO_CONTINUE. See below.

shmem_get_folio() was being called with SGP_NOALLOC, and now it is
being called with SGP_CACHE (by shmem_fault()). This will result in a
UAPI change: UFFDIO_CONTINUE for a VA without a page in the page cache
should result in EFAULT, but now the page will be allocated.
SGP_NOALLOC was carefully chosen[1], so I think a better way to do
this will be to:

1. Have a FAULT_FLAG_USERFAULT_CONTINUE (or something)
2. In shmem_fault(), if FAULT_FLAG_USERFAULT_CONTINUE, use SGP_NOALLOC
instead of SGP_CACHE (and make sure not to drop into
handle_userfault(), of course)

What if ret == VM_FAULT_RETRY? I think we should retry instead instead
of returning -EFAULT.

And I'm not sure how VM_FAULT_NOPAGE should be handled, like if we
need special logic for it or not.
