mm/memory: batch set uffd-wp markers during zapping

Enable batch setting of uffd-wp PTE markers.

The code paths passing nr > 1 to zap_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() produce
that nr through either folio_pte_batch() or swap_pte_batch(), therefore
batching is correct:

1) All PTEs belong to the same type of VMA: anonymous or non-anonymous,
   wp-armed or non-wp-armed.

2) All PTEs are either marked with uffd-wp or not marked with uffd-wp;
   the same applies to the pte_swp_uffd_any() check.

3) uffd_supports_wp_marker() is independent of the function parameters.

Use set_pte_at() in a loop instead of set_ptes(), because set_ptes()
cannot handle nonpresent to nonpresent conversion for nr_pages > 1.

Rename the helper to cond_install_uffd_wp_ptes().
