mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP

Similar to how we optimized fork(), let's implement PTE batching when
consecutive (present) PTEs map consecutive pages of the same large folio.

Most infrastructure we need for batching (mmu gather, rmap) is already
there.  We only have to add get_and_clear_full_ptes() and
clear_full_ptes().  Similarly, extend zap_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() to
process a PTE range.

We won't bother sanity-checking the mapcount of all subpages, but only
check the mapcount of the first subpage we process.  If there is a real
problem hiding somewhere, we can trigger it simply by using small folios,
or when we zap single pages of a large folio.  Ideally, we had that check
in rmap code (including for delayed rmap), but then we cannot print the
PTE.  Let's keep it simple for now.  If we ever have a cheap
folio_mapcount(), we might just want to check for underflows there.

To keep small folios as fast as possible force inlining of a specialized
variant using __always_inline with nr=1.
