mm/hugetlb: refactor subpage recording
For a given hugepage backing a VA, there's a rather ineficient loop which
is solely responsible for storing subpages in GUP @pages/@vmas array. For
each subpage we check whether it's within range or size of @pages and keep
increment @pfn_offset and a couple other variables per subpage iteration.
Simplify this logic and minimize the cost of each iteration to just store
the output page/vma. Instead of incrementing number of @refs iteratively,
we do it through pre-calculation of @refs and only with a tight loop for
storing pinned subpages/vmas.
Additionally, retain existing behaviour with using mem_map_offset() when
recording the subpages for configurations that don't have a contiguous
mem_map.
pinning consequently improves bringing us close to
{pin,get}_user_pages_fast:
- 16G with 1G huge page size
