These notifiers here use the Linux rmaps to perform the callbacks.
In order to walk the rmaps locks must be held. Callbacks can therefore
only operate in an atomic context.

This is a patchset implementing MMU notifier callbacks based on Andrea's
earlier work. These are needed if Linux pages are referenced from something
else than tracked by the rmaps of the kernel.
Issues:
- Feedback from uses of the callbacks for KVM, RDMA, XPmem and GRU
- RCU quiescent periods
