hugetlb: avoid taking i_mmap_mutex in unmap_single_vma() for hugetlb

i_mmap_mutex lock was added in unmap_single_vma by 502717f4e ("hugetlb:
fix linked list corruption in unmap_hugepage_range()") but we don't use
page->lru in unmap_hugepage_range any more.  Also the lock was taken
higher up in the stack in some code path.  That would result in deadlock.

unmap_mapping_range (i_mmap_mutex)
 -> unmap_mapping_range_tree
    -> unmap_mapping_range_vma
       -> zap_page_range_single
         -> unmap_single_vma
	      -> unmap_hugepage_range (i_mmap_mutex)

For shared pagetable support for huge pages, since pagetable pages are ref
counted we don't need any lock during huge_pmd_unshare.  We do take
i_mmap_mutex in huge_pmd_share while walking the vma_prio_tree in mapping.
