[PATCH 1/2] mm/hmm: support automatic NUMA balancing

From: Philip Yang <Philip.Yang at amd.com>

While the page is migrating by NUMA balancing, HMM failed to detect this
condition and still return the old page. Application will use the new
page migrated, but driver pass the old page physical address to GPU,
this crash the application later.

Use pte_protnone(pte) to return this condition and then hmm_vma_do_fault
will allocate new page.
