mm/z3fold: fix z3fold_reclaim_page races with z3fold_free
Think about the below scenario: CPU1 CPU2 z3fold_reclaim_page z3fold_free spin_lock(&pool->lock) get_z3fold_header -- hold page_lock kref_get_unless_zero kref_put--zhdr->refcount can be 1 now !z3fold_page_trylock kref_put -- zhdr->refcount is 0 now release_z3fold_page WARN_ON(!list_empty(&zhdr->buddy)); -- we're on buddy now! spin_lock(&pool->lock); -- deadlock here! z3fold_reclaim_page might race with z3fold_free and will lead to pool lock deadlock and zhdr buddy non-empty warning. To fix this, defer getting the refcount until page_lock is held just like what __z3fold_alloc does. Note this has the side effect that we won't break the reclaim if we meet a soon to be released z3fold page now.
