userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: fix __mcopy_atomic_hugetlb retry/error processing
The new routine copy_huge_page_from_user() uses kmap_atomic() to map
PAGE_SIZE pages. However, this prevents page faults in the subsequent
call to copy_from_user(). This is OK in the case where the routine is
copied with mmap_sema held. However, in another case we want to allow
page faults. So, add a new argument allow_pagefault to indicate if the
routine should allow page faults.
