hugetlb: add lockdep check for i_mmap_rwsem held in huge_pmd_share
As a debugging aid, huge_pmd_share should make sure i_mmap_rwsem is held if necessary. To clarify the 'if necessary', expand the comment block at the beginning of huge_pmd_share. No functional change. The added i_mmap_assert_locked() call is only enabled if CONFIG_LOCKDEP. Ideally, this should have been included with commit 34ae204f1851 ("hugetlbfs: remove call to huge_pte_alloc without i_mmap_rwsem").
