mm/page_vma_mapped: fix device-private PMD handling

Commit 65edfda6f3f2 ("mm/rmap: extend rmap and migration support
device-private entries") introduced the concept of device-private PMD
entries, but did not correctly update the rmap walk code to account for
them.

As a result, when page_vma_mapped_walk() encounters device-private PMD
entries, it takes no action other than to acquire the PMD lock and exit.

However this is highly problematic for two reasons - firstly, device
private entries possess a PFN so check_pmd() needs to be called to ensure
an overlapping PFN range.

Secondly, and more importantly, if PVMW_MIGRATION is set the caller
assumes the returned entry is a migration entry, resulting in memory
corruption when the caller tries to interpret the device private entry as
such.

In addition, commit 146287290023 ("mm/huge_memory: implement
device-private THP splitting") allowed device private PMDs to be split
like THP mappings, but again did not update this code path.

As a result, we might race a PMD split prior to acquiring the PMD lock.

This patch addresses all of these issues by invoking check_pmd(), ensuring
PMVW_MIGRATION is not set and checks whether a split raced us we do for
PMD THP and migration entries.

Instead of checking for a subset of the cases after taking the pmd_lock(),
put device-private along with pmd_trans_huge() and
pmd_is_migration_entry().  Also remove thp_migration_supported() as it is
already guarded by pmd_is_migration_entry().
