x86: mm: free page table pages by RCU instead of semi RCU

Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, the page table pages
will be freed by semi RCU, that is:

 - batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
 - single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free

In this way, the page table can be lockless traversed by disabling IRQ in
paths such as fast GUP.  But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page
table pages in paths other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI
cannot be synchronized with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}().

In preparation for supporting empty PTE page table pages reclaimation, let
single table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing.  Then we can
also use pte_offset_map() etc to prevent PTE page from being freed.

Like pte_free_defer(), we can also safely use ptdesc->pt_rcu_head to free
the page table pages:

 - The pt_rcu_head is unioned with pt_list and pmd_huge_pte.

 - For pt_list, it is used to manage the PGD page in x86. Fortunately
   tlb_remove_table() will not be used for free PGD pages, so it is safe
   to use pt_rcu_head.

 - For pmd_huge_pte, it is used for THPs, so it is safe.

After applying this patch, if CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM is enabled, the function
call of free_pte() is as follows:

free_pte
  pte_free_tlb
    __pte_free_tlb
      ___pte_free_tlb
        paravirt_tlb_remove_table
          tlb_remove_table [!CONFIG_PARAVIRT, Xen PV, Hyper-V, KVM]
            [no-free-memory slowpath:]
              tlb_table_invalidate
              tlb_remove_table_one
                __tlb_remove_table_one [frees via RCU]
            [fastpath:]
              tlb_table_flush
                tlb_remove_table_free [frees via RCU]
          native_tlb_remove_table [CONFIG_PARAVIRT on native]
            tlb_remove_table [see above]
