mm/uffd: reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode

Browse Source 
The motivation of this patch comes from a recent report and patchfix from
David Hildenbrand on hugetlb shared handling of wr-protected page [1].

With the reproducer provided in commit message of [1], one can leverage
the uffd-wp lazy-reset of ptes to trigger a hugetlb issue which can affect
not only the attacker process, but also the whole system.

The lazy-reset mechanism of uffd-wp was used to make unregister faster,
meanwhile it has an assumption that any leftover pgtable entries should
only affect the process on its own, so not only the user should be aware
of anything it does, but also it should not affect outside of the process.

But it seems that this is not true, and it can also be utilized to make
some exploit easier.

So far there's no clue showing that the lazy-reset is important to any
userfaultfd users because normally the unregister will only happen once
for a specific range of memory of the lifecycle of the process.

Considering all above, what this patch proposes is to do explicit pte
resets when unregister an uffd region with wr-protect mode enabled.

It should be the same as calling ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT, wp=false)
right before ioctl(UFFDIO_UNREGISTER) for the user.  So potentially it'll
make the unregister slower.  From that pov it's a very slight abi change,
but hopefully nothing should break with this change either.

Regarding to the change itself - core of uffd write [un]protect operation
is moved into a separate function (uffd_wp_range()) and it is reused in
the unregister code path.

Note that the new function will not check for anything, e.g.  ranges or
memory types, because they should have been checked during the previous
UFFDIO_REGISTER or it should have failed already.  It also doesn't check
mmap_changing because we're with mmap write lock held anyway.

I added a Fixes upon introducing of uffd-wp shmem+hugetlbfs because that's
the only issue reported so far and that's the commit David's reproducer
will start working (v5.19+).  But the whole idea actually applies to not
only file memories but also anonymous.  It's just that we don't need to
fix anonymous prior to v5.19- because there's no known way to exploit.

IOW, this patch can also fix the issue reported in [1] as the patch 2 does.
