mm/madvise: use vm_normal_folio_pmd() in cold/pageout PMD range

Browse Source 
mmap a VM_MIXEDMAP region whose ->huge_fault installs a PMD through
vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() - mshv_vtl_low does this, and needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN
to open - then:

  madvise(p, PMD_SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);

With a stand-in module for the driver:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffff587c0000008
  RIP: 0010:madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range+0x410/0x9b0
   walk_pgd_range+0x52b/0xaf0
   __walk_page_range+0x6a/0x1d0
   walk_page_range_vma_unsafe+0x8e/0x120
   madvise_pageout+0xb2/0x180
   madvise_vma_behavior+0x46b/0xa90
   do_madvise+0x108/0x190
   __x64_sys_madvise+0x26/0x30

Nothing validates the pfn on the way in:

  can_madv_lru_vma()     rejects VM_PFNMAP, but not VM_MIXEDMAP
  can_fault()            *pfn = vmf->pgoff & ~(mask >> PAGE_SHIFT);
  vmf_insert_pfn_pmd()   no pfn_valid() check
  pmd_folio()            pfn_to_page() -> unpopulated vmemmap

Even with a valid pfn the path is wrong.  The mapping carries no rmap, so
folio_maybe_mapped_shared() sees mapcount 0, and the walker goes on to
folio_deactivate(), or folio_isolate_lru() plus reclaim_pages(), against a
folio this mapping does not own.

Use vm_normal_folio_pmd() and skip on NULL, as the PTE half of this same
walker already does with vm_normal_folio().  This also filters the huge
zero PMD, so its separate check is no longer needed.
