Commit c0d0381ade79 added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode during
fault processing.  However, this was observed to increase fault processing
time by aprox 33%.  Technically, i_mmap_rwsem only needs to be held when
pmd sharing is possible.  pmd sharing depends on mapping flags, alignment
and size.  The routine vma_shareable() already checks these conditions.
Therefore, use vma_shareable to determine if sharing is possible and if
taking i_mmap_rwsem is necessary.  This is done during fault processing
and vma copying.  Code in memory-failure, page migration and userfaultfd
continue to always take i_mmap_rwsem.  These are not as performance
sensitive.
