mm/hugetlb: fix uffd wr-protection for CoW optimization path
This patch fixes an issue that a hugetlb uffd-wr-protected mapping can be writable even with uffd-wp bit set. It only happens with hugetlb private mappings, when someone firstly wr-protects a missing pte (which will install a pte marker), then a write to the same page without any prior access to the page. Userfaultfd-wp trap for hugetlb was implemented in hugetlb_fault() before reaching hugetlb_wp() to avoid taking more locks that userfault won't need. However there's one CoW optimization path that can trigger hugetlb_wp() inside hugetlb_no_page(), which will bypass the trap. This patch skips hugetlb_wp() for CoW and retries the fault if uffd-wp bit is detected. The new path will only trigger in the CoW optimization path because generic hugetlb_fault() (e.g. when a present pte was wr-protected) will resolve the uffd-wp bit already. Also make sure anonymous UNSHARE won't be affected and can still be resolved, IOW only skip CoW not CoR. This patch will be needed for v5.19+ hence copy stable.
