Suren Baghdasaryan 1235ccd05b mm: handle swap page faults under per-VMA lock
When page fault is handled under per-VMA lock protection, all swap page
faults are retried with mmap_lock because folio_lock_or_retry has to drop
and reacquire mmap_lock if folio could not be immediately locked.  Follow
the same pattern as mmap_lock to drop per-VMA lock when waiting for folio
and retrying once folio is available.

With this obstacle removed, enable do_swap_page to operate under per-VMA
lock protection.  Drivers implementing ops->migrate_to_ram might still
rely on mmap_lock, therefore we have to fall back to mmap_lock in that
particular case.

Note that the only time do_swap_page calls synchronous swap_readpage is
when SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set, which is only set for
QUEUE_FLAG_SYNCHRONOUS devices: brd, zram and nvdimms (both btt and pmem).
Therefore we don't sleep in this path, and there's no need to drop the
mmap or per-VMA lock.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
