ef3038a573 memfd: Convert memfd_tag_pins to XArray
Switch to a batch-processing model like memfd_wait_for_pins() and
use the xa_state previously set up by memfd_wait_for_pins().

2313216f86 memfd: Convert memfd_wait_for_pins to XArray
Simplify the locking by taking the spinlock while we walk the tree on
the assumption that many acquires and releases of the lock will be worse
than holding the lock while we process an entire batch of pages.

c9c554f214 alloc_file(): switch to passing O_... flags instead of FMODE_... mode
... so that it could set both ->f_flags and ->f_mode, without callers
having to set ->f_flags manually.

5d752600a8 mm: restructure memfd code
With the addition of memfd hugetlbfs support, we now have the situation
where memfd depends on TMPFS -or- HUGETLBFS.  Previously, memfd was only
supported on tmpfs, so it made sense that the code resided in shmem.c.
In the current code, memfd is only functional if TMPFS is defined.  If
HUGETLFS is defined and TMPFS is not defined, then memfd functionality
will not be available for hugetlbfs.  This does not cause BUGs, just a
lack of potentially desired functionality.

Code is restructured in the following way:
- include/linux/memfd.h is a new file containing memfd specific
  definitions previously contained in shmem_fs.h.
- mm/memfd.c is a new file containing memfd specific code previously
  contained in shmem.c.
- memfd specific code is removed from shmem_fs.h and shmem.c.
- A new config option MEMFD_CREATE is added that is defined if TMPFS
  or HUGETLBFS is defined.

No functional changes are made to the code: restructuring only.
