If the user passes in a pointer to a GGTT mmaping of the same buffer
being written to, we can hit a deadlock in acquiring the shmemfs page
(once as the write destination and then as the read source).

We can reduce (but not eliminate!) the chance of this happening by
faulting the user_data before we take the page lock in
pagecache_write_begin(). One way to eliminate the potential recursion
here is by disabling pagefaults for the copy, and handling the fallback
to use an alternative method -- so convert to use kmap_atomic (which
should disable preemption and pagefaulting for the copy) and report
ENODEV instead of EFAULT so that our caller tries again with a different
copy mechanism -- we already check that the page should have been
faultable so a false negative should be rare.
