Peter Xu d1751118c8 mm/uffd: detect pgtable allocation failures
Before this patch, when there's any pgtable allocation issues happened
during change_protection(), the error will be ignored from the syscall. 
For shmem, there will be an error dumped into the host dmesg.  Two issues
with that:

  (1) Doing a trace dump when allocation fails is not anything close to
      grace.

  (2) The user should be notified with any kind of such error, so the user
      can trap it and decide what to do next, either by retrying, or stop
      the process properly, or anything else.

For userfault users, this will change the API of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT when
pgtable allocation failure happened.  It should not normally break anyone,
though.  If it breaks, then in good ways.

One man-page update will be on the way to introduce the new -ENOMEM for
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT.  Not marking stable so we keep the old behavior on
the 5.19-till-now kernels.
