Log:
  Allow to specify for vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() that nofault mode
  should be honored.
  
  We must not sleep or acquire any MI VM locks if TDP_NOFAULTING is
  specified.  On the other hand, there were some callers in the tree
  which set TDP_NOFAULTING for larger scope than needed, I fixed the
  code which I wrote, but I suspect that linuxkpi and out of tree drm
  drivers might abuse this still.
  
  So only enable the mode for vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() where
  vm_fault_hold() is not called when specifically asked by user.  I
  decided to use vm_prot_t flag to not change KPI.  Since number of
  flags in vm_prot_t is limited, I reused the same flag which was
  already consumed for vm_map_lookup().
