Subject: mm/damon: validate if the pmd entry is present before accessing

From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com>

commit c8b9aff419303e4d4219b5ff64b1c7e062dee48e upstream.

pmd_huge() is used to validate if the pmd entry is mapped by a huge page,
also including the case of non-present (migration or hwpoisoned) pmd entry
on arm64 or x86 architectures.  This means that pmd_pfn() can not get the
correct pfn number for a non-present pmd entry, which will cause
damon_get_page() to get an incorrect page struct (also may be NULL by
pfn_to_online_page()), making the access statistics incorrect.

This means that the DAMON may make incorrect decision according to the
incorrect statistics, for example, DAMON may can not reclaim cold page
in time due to this cold page was regarded as accessed mistakenly if
DAMOS_PAGEOUT operation is specified.

Moreover it does not make sense that we still waste time to get the page
of the non-present entry.  Just treat it as not-accessed and skip it,
which maintains consistency with non-present pte level entries.

So add pmd entry present validation to fix the above issues.
