mm, THP: don't hold mmap_sem in khugepaged when allocating THP

When allocating huge page for collapsing, khugepaged currently holds
mmap_sem for reading on the mm where collapsing occurs.  Afterwards the
read lock is dropped before write lock is taken on the same mmap_sem.

Holding mmap_sem during whole huge page allocation is therefore useless,
the vma needs to be rechecked after taking the write lock anyway.
Furthemore, huge page allocation might involve a rather long sync
compaction, and thus block any mmap_sem writers and i.e.  affect workloads
that perform frequent m(un)map or mprotect oterations.

This patch simply releases the read lock before allocating a huge page.
It also deletes an outdated comment that assumed vma must be stable, as it
was using alloc_hugepage_vma().  This is no longer true since commit
9f1b868a13ac ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target node").
