[PATCH v3 hmm 12/12] mm/hmm: Fix error flows in hmm_invalidate_range_start

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg at mellanox.com>

If the trylock on the hmm->mirrors_sem fails the function will return
without decrementing the notifiers that were previously incremented. Since
the caller will not call invalidate_range_end() on EAGAIN this will result
in notifiers becoming permanently incremented and deadlock.

If the sync_cpu_device_pagetables() required blocking the function will
not return EAGAIN even though the device continues to touch the
pages. This is a violation of the mmu notifier contract.

Switch, and rename, the ranges_lock to a spin lock so we can reliably
obtain it without blocking during error unwind.

The error unwind is necessary since the notifiers count must be held
incremented across the call to sync_cpu_device_pagetables() as we cannot
allow the range to become marked valid by a parallel
invalidate_start/end() pair while doing sync_cpu_device_pagetables().
