mm/hugetlb: fix uffd-wp bit lost when unsharing happens
When we try to unshare a pinned page for a private hugetlb, uffd-wp bit can get lost during unsharing. When above condition met, one can lose uffd-wp bit on the privately mapped hugetlb page. It allows the page to be writable even if it should still be wr-protected. I assume it can mean data loss. This should be very rare, only if an unsharing happened on a private hugetlb page with uffd-wp protected (e.g. in a child which shares the same page with parent with UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK enabled). When I wrote the reproducer (provided in the last patch) I needed to use the newest gup_test cmd introduced by David to trigger it because I don't even know another way to do a proper RO longerm pin. Besides that, it needs a bunch of other conditions all met: (1) hugetlb being mapped privately, (2) userfaultfd registered with WP and EVENT_FORK, (3) the user app fork()s, then, (4) RO longterm pin onto a wr-protected anonymous page. If it's not impossible to hit in production I'd say extremely rare.
