mm/huge_memory: add vmf_insert_folio_pmd()
Currently DAX folio/page reference counts are managed differently to normal pages. To allow these to be managed the same as normal pages introduce vmf_insert_folio_pmd. This will map the entire PMD-sized folio and take references as it would for a normally mapped page. This is distinct from the current mechanism, vmf_insert_pfn_pmd, which simply inserts a special devmap PMD entry into the page table without holding a reference to the page for the mapping. It is not currently useful to implement a more generic vmf_insert_folio() which selects the correct behaviour based on folio_order(). This is because PTE faults require only a subpage of the folio to be PTE mapped rather than the entire folio. It would be possible to add this context somewhere but callers already need to handle PTE faults and PMD faults separately so a more generic function is not useful.
