mm: userfaultfd: fix UFFDIO_CONTINUE on fallocated shmem pages
When fallocate() is used on a shmem file, the pages we allocate can end up with !PageUptodate. Since UFFDIO_CONTINUE tries to find the existing page the user wants to map with SGP_READ, we would fail to find such a page, since shmem_getpage_gfp returns with a "NULL" pagep for SGP_READ if it discovers !PageUptodate. As a result, UFFDIO_CONTINUE returns -EFAULT, as it would do if the page wasn't found in the page cache at all. This isn't the intended behavior. UFFDIO_CONTINUE is just trying to find if a page exists, and doesn't care whether it still needs to be cleared or not. So, instead of SGP_READ, pass in SGP_NOALLOC. This is the same, except for one critical difference: in the !PageUptodate case, SGP_NOALLOC will clear the page and then return it. With this change, UFFDIO_CONTINUE works properly (succeeds) on a shmem file which has been fallocated, but otherwise not modified.
