Subject: [RFC PATCH V4 0/1] mm: add last level page table numa info to /proc/pid/numa_pgtable

In many data center servers, the shared memory architectures is
Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA), remote numa node data access
often brings a high latency problem, but what we are easy to ignore
is that the page table remote numa access, It can also leads to a
performance degradation.

So there add a new interface in /proc, This will help developers to
get more info about performance issues if they are caused by cross-NUMA.

V4 -> V3
1, Add some detects and spinlock when operating PMD page as Baolin Wang advised.

V2 -> V3
1, Fix compile warning bug.

V1 -> V2
1, As Matthew Wilcox advise, Simplify the code.
2, Do some codes format fix.

Let me try rewriting:

"
Many data center servers employ Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA)
architectures. Remote numa memory access results in high latency. While
memory placement is one issue, sub-optimal page table placement can also
result in surprise performance degradation.

Why do we only care about "last level page table", why not about the others?

IMHO, we could emit something like "0, 1, 3, 0" instead for a given user
space address, showing the NUMA node the page table belongs to from
highest to lowest page table level.

The kernel test robot reported that we need "/proc/pid/numa_pgtable" ?! :)

Just drop that unless it's a follow-up fix.

I have planned to implement the PTE page table in this version first, 
and then support other page tables in the next patch later.

If there are plans, let's do it all at once, to get a good and single
interface to expose that information.
