mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==false

Browse Source 
For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or
non-EXCLUSIVE.  This action will suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check
within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating the process of bringing up
mTHP swapin.

 static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio,
                 struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
                 unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level)
 {
         ...
         if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) {
                 VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) &&
                                  level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio);
         }
         ...
 }

It also improves the code's readability.  Currently, all new anonymous
folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0.  This ensures that
new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely
exclusive or entirely shared.

A useful comment from Hugh's fix:

: Commit "mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==
: false" has extended folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to use on non-exclusive
: folios, already visible to others in swap cache and on LRU.
: 
: That renders its non-atomic __folio_set_swapbacked() unsafe: it risks
: overwriting concurrent atomic operations on folio->flags, losing bits
: added or restoring bits cleared.  Since it's only used in this risky way
: when folio_test_locked and !folio_test_anon, many such races are excluded;
: but, for example, isolations by folio_test_clear_lru() are vulnerable, and
: setting or clearing active.
: 
: It could just use the atomic folio_set_swapbacked(); but this function
: does try to avoid atomics where it can, so use a branch instead: just
: avoid setting swapbacked when it is already set, that is good enough. 
: (Swapbacked is normally stable once set: lazyfree can undo it, but only
: later, when found anon in a page table.)
: 
: This fixes a lot of instability under compaction and swapping loads:
: assorted "Bad page"s, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO()s, apparently even page double
: frees - though I've not worked out what races could lead to the latter.
