[RFC PATCH 13/26] hugetlb: add huge_pte_alloc_high_granularity

[James Houghton]

This function is to be used to do a HugeTLB page table walk where we may
need to split a leaf-level huge PTE into a new page table level.

Consider the case where we want to install 4K inside an empty 1G page:
1. We walk to the PUD and notice that it is pte_none.
2. We split the PUD by calling `hugetlb_split_to_shift`, creating a
   standard PUD that points to PMDs that are all pte_none.
3. We continue the PT walk to find the PMD. We split it just like we
   split the PUD.
4. We find the PTE and give it back to the caller.

To avoid concurrent splitting operations on the same page table entry,
we require that the mapping rwsem is held for writing while collapsing
and for reading when doing a high-granularity PT walk.
