mm/khugepaged: maintain page cache uptodate flag
Make sure that collapse_file doesn't interfere with checking the uptodate flag in the page cache by only inserting hpage into the page cache after it has been updated and marked uptodate. This is achieved by simply not replacing present pages with hpage when iterating over the target range. The present pages are already locked, so replacing them with the locked hpage before the collapse is finalized is unnecessary. However, it is necessary to stop freezing the present pages after validating them, since leaving long-term frozen pages in the page cache can lead to deadlocks. Simply checking the reference count is sufficient to ensure that there are no long-term references hanging around that would the collapse would break. Similar to hpage, there is no reason that the present pages actually need to be frozen in addition to being locked. This fixes a race where folio_seek_hole_data would mistake hpage for an fallocated but unwritten page. This race is visible to userspace via data temporarily disappearing from SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE. This also fixes a similar race where pages could temporarily disappear from mincore.
