mm: speculative page references

If we can be sure that elevating the page_count on a pagecache page will
pin it, we can speculatively run this operation, and subsequently check to
see if we hit the right page rather than relying on holding a lock or
otherwise pinning a reference to the page.

This can be done if get_page/put_page behaves consistently throughout the
whole tree (ie.  if we "get" the page after it has been used for something
else, we must be able to free it with a put_page).

Actually, there is a period where the count behaves differently: when the
page is free or if it is a constituent page of a compound page.  We need
an atomic_inc_not_zero operation to ensure we don't try to grab the page
in either case.

This patch introduces the core locking protocol to the pagecache (ie.
adds page_cache_get_speculative, and tweaks some update-side code to make
it work).

Thanks to Hugh for pointing out an improvement to the algorithm setting
page_count to zero when we have control of all references, in order to
hold off speculative getters.

* this allows allocators to use a synchronize_rcu() to stabilize _count.
*
* Unless an RCU grace period has passed, the count of all pages coming out
* of the allocator must be considered unstable. page_count may return higher
* than expected, and put_page must be able to do the right thing when the
* page has been finished with, no matter what it is subsequently allocated
* for (because put_page is what is used here to drop an invalid speculative
* reference).
*
* This is the interesting part of the lockless pagecache (and lockless
* get_user_pages) locking protocol, where the lookup-side (eg. find_get_page)
* has the following pattern:
* 1. find page in radix tree
* 2. conditionally increment refcount
* 3. check the page is still in pagecache (if no, goto 1)
*
* Remove-side that cares about stability of _count (eg. reclaim) has the
* following (with tree_lock held for write):
* A. atomically check refcount is correct and set it to 0 (atomic_cmpxchg)
* B. remove page from pagecache
* C. free the page
*
* There are 2 critical interleavings that matter:
* - 2 runs before A: in this case, A sees elevated refcount and bails out
* - A runs before 2: in this case, 2 sees zero refcount and retries;
* subsequently, B will complete and 1 will find no page, causing the
* lookup to return NULL.
*
* It is possible that between 1 and 2, the page is removed then the exact same
* page is inserted into the same position in pagecache. That's OK: the
* old find_get_page using tree_lock could equally have run before or after
* such a re-insertion, depending on order that locks are granted.
*
* Lookups racing against pagecache insertion isn't a big problem: either 1
* will find the page or it will not. Likewise, the old find_get_page could run
