hugetlbfs: revert "Use i_mmap_rwsem to fix page fault/truncate race"
This reverts c86aa7bbfd5568ba8a82d3635d8f7b8a8e06fe54 The reverted commit caused ABBA deadlocks when file migration raced with file eviction for specific hugetlbfs files. This was discovered with a modified version of the LTP move_pages12 test. The purpose of the reverted patch was to close a long existing race between hugetlbfs file truncation and page faults. After more analysis of the patch and impacted code, it was determined that i_mmap_rwsem can not be used for all required synchronization. Therefore, revert this patch while working an another approach to the underlying issue.
