[PATCH 10/12] mm/khugepaged: collapse_pte_mapped_thp() with mmap_read_lock()

Bring collapse_and_free_pmd() back into collapse_pte_mapped_thp().
It does need mmap_read_lock(), but it does not need mmap_write_lock(),
nor vma_start_write() nor i_mmap lock nor anon_vma lock. All racing
paths are relying on pte_offset_map_lock() and pmd_lock(), so use those.
Follow the pattern in retract_page_tables(); and using pte_free_defer()
removes the need for tlb_remove_table_sync_one() here.
Confirm the preliminary find_pmd_or_thp_or_none() once page lock has been
acquired and the page looks suitable: from then on its state is stable.
However, collapse_pte_mapped_thp() was doing something others don't:
freeing a page table still containing "valid" entries. i_mmap lock did
stop a racing truncate from double-freeing those pages, but we prefer
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() to clear the entries as usual. Their TLB
flush can wait until the pmdp_collapse_flush() which follows, but the
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() has to be done earlier.
Some cleanup while rearranging: rename "count" to "nr_ptes";
and "step 2" does not need to duplicate the checks in "step 1".
