    mm: migration: use rcu_dereference_protected when dereferencing the radix tree slot during file page migration
    
    migrate_pages() -> unmap_and_move() only calls rcu_read_lock() for
    anonymous pages, as introduced by git commit
    989f89c5 ("fix rcu_read_lock() in page
    migraton").  The point of the RCU protection there is part of getting a
    stable reference to anon_vma and is only held for anon pages as file pages
    are locked which is sufficient protection against freeing.
    
    However, while a file page's mapping is being migrated, the radix tree is
    double checked to ensure it is the expected page.  This uses
    radix_tree_deref_slot() -> rcu_dereference() without the RCU lock held
    triggering the following warning.

    This patch introduces radix_tree_deref_slot_protected() which calls
    rcu_dereference_protected().  Users of it must pass in the
    mapping->tree_lock that is protecting this dereference.  Holding the tree
    lock protects against parallel updaters of the radix tree meaning that
    rcu_dereference_protected is allowable.
