mm/hugetlb: expose hugetlb fault mutex for use by fallocate
hugetlb page faults are currently synchronized by the table of mutexes (htlb_fault_mutex_table). fallocate code will need to synchronize with the page fault code when it allocates or deletes pages. Expose interfaces so that fallocate operations can be synchronized with page faults. Minor name changes to be more consistent with other global hugetlb symbols.
