ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly

Switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops on stale
nodes still left over from the previous stable tree.  It's not something
that people will often want to do, but it would be lame to demand a reboot
when they're trying to determine which merge_across_nodes setting is best.

How can this happen?  We only permit switching merge_across_nodes when
pages_shared is 0, and usually set run 2 to force that beforehand, which
ought to unmerge everything: yet oopses still occur when you then run 1.

Three causes:

1. The old stable tree (built according to the inverse
   merge_across_nodes) has not been fully torn down.  A stable node
   lingers until get_ksm_page() notices that the page it references no
   longer references it: but the page is not necessarily freed as soon as
   expected, particularly when swapcache.

   Fix this with a pass through the old stable tree, applying
   get_ksm_page() to each of the remaining nodes (most found stale and
   removed immediately), with forced removal of any left over.  Unless the
   page is still mapped: I've not seen that case, it shouldn't occur, but
   better to WARN_ON_ONCE and EBUSY than BUG.

2. __ksm_enter() has a nice little optimization, to insert the new mm
   just behind ksmd's cursor, so there's a full pass for it to stabilize
   (or be removed) before ksmd addresses it.  Nice when ksmd is running,
   but not so nice when we're trying to unmerge all mms: we were missing
   those mms forked and inserted behind the unmerge cursor.  Easily fixed
   by inserting at the end when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE.

3.  It is possible for a KSM page to be faulted back from swapcache
   into an mm, just after unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() scanned past
   it.  Fix this by copying on fault when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE: but that is
   private to ksm.c, so dissolve the distinction between
   ksm_might_need_to_copy() and ksm_does_need_to_copy(), doing it all in
   the one call into ksm.c.

A long outstanding, unrelated bugfix sneaks in with that third fix:
ksm_does_need_to_copy() would copy from a !PageUptodate page (implying I/O
error when read in from swap) to a page which it then marks Uptodate.  Fix
this case by not copying, letting do_swap_page() discover the error.
