hugetlb: allocate vma lock for all sharable vmas
The hugetlb vma lock was originally designed to synchronize pmd sharing.
As such, it was only necessary to allocate the lock for vmas that were
capable of pmd sharing. Later in the development cycle, it was discovered
that it could also be used to simplify fault/truncation races as described
in [1]. However, a subsequent change to allocate the lock for all vmas
that use the page cache was never made. A fault/truncation race could
leave pages in a file past i_size until the file is removed.
Remove the previous restriction and allocate lock for all VM_MAYSHARE
vmas. Warn in the unlikely event of allocation failure.
