[PATCH hmm 3/8] mm/hmm: do not call hmm_vma_walk_hole() while holding a spinlock

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg at mellanox.com>

This eventually calls into handle_mm_fault() which is a sleeping function.
Release the lock first.

hmm_vma_walk_hole() does not touch the contents of the PUD, so it does not
need the lock.

Fixes: 3afc423632a1 ("mm: pagewalk: add p4d_entry() and pgd_entry()")
