filemap: check compound_head(page)->mapping in filemap_fault()

Patch series "Enable THP for text section of non-shmem files", v10;

This patchset follows up discussion at LSF/MM 2019.  The motivation is to
put text section of an application in THP, and thus reduces iTLB miss rate
and improves performance.  Both Facebook and Oracle showed strong
interests to this feature.

To make reviews easier, this set aims a mininal valid product.  Current
version of the work does not have any changes to file system specific
code.  This comes with some limitations (discussed later).

This set enables an application to "hugify" its text section by simply
running something like:

          madvise(0x600000, 0x80000, MADV_HUGEPAGE);

Before this call, the /proc/<pid>/maps looks like:

    00400000-074d0000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927     app

After this call, part of the text section is split out and mapped to
THP:

    00400000-00425000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927     app
    00600000-00e00000 r-xp 00200000 00:27 2006927     app   <<< on THP
    00e00000-074d0000 r-xp 00a00000 00:27 2006927     app

Limitations:

1. This only works for text section (vma with VM_DENYWRITE).
2. Original limitation #2 is removed in v3.

We gated this feature with an experimental config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS.
Once we get better support on the write path, we can remove the config and
enable it by default.

Tested cases:
1. Tested with btrfs and ext4.
2. Tested with real work application (memcache like caching service).
3. Tested with "THP aware uprobe":

This patch (of 7):

Currently, filemap_fault() avoids race condition with truncate by checking
page->mapping == mapping.  This does not work for compound pages.  This
patch let it check compound_head(page)->mapping instead.
