Subject: [PATCH] mm/khugepaged: fix GUP-fast interaction by sending IPI

Since commit 70cbc3cc78a99 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.

However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is not concurrently freed. Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.
