mm/huge_memory: fix a folio_split() race condition with folio_try_get()

During a pagecache folio split, the values in the related xarray should
not be changed from the original folio at xarray split time until all
after-split folios are well formed and stored in the xarray.  Current use
of xas_try_split() in __split_unmapped_folio() lets some after-split
folios show up at wrong indices in the xarray.  When these misplaced
after-split folios are unfrozen, before correct folios are stored via
__xa_store(), and grabbed by folio_try_get(), they are returned to
userspace at wrong file indices, causing data corruption.  More detailed
explanation is at the bottom.

The reproducer is at: https://github.com/dfinity/thp-madv-remove-test
It
1. creates a memfd,
2. forks,
3. in the child process, maps the file with large folios (via shmem code
   path) and reads the mapped file continuously with 16 threads,
4. in the parent process, uses madvise(MADV_REMOVE) to punch poles in the
   large folio.

Data corruption can be observed without the fix.  Basically, data from a
wrong page->index is returned.

Fix it by using the original folio in xas_try_split() calls, so that
folio_try_get() can get the right after-split folios after the original
folio is unfrozen.

Uniform split, split_huge_page*(), is not affected, since it uses
xas_split_alloc() and xas_split() only once and stores the original folio
in the xarray.  Change xas_split() used in uniform split branch to use the
original folio to avoid confusion.

Fixes below points to the commit introduces the code, but folio_split() is
used in a later commit 7460b470 ("mm/truncate: use folio_split() in
truncate operation").

More details:

For example, a folio f is split non-uniformly into f, f2, f3, f4 like
below:
+----------------+---------+----+----+
|       f        |    f2   | f3 | f4 |
+----------------+---------+----+----+
but the xarray would look like below after __split_unmapped_folio() is
done:
+----------------+---------+----+----+
|       f        |    f2   | f3 | f3 |
+----------------+---------+----+----+

After __split_unmapped_folio(), the code changes the xarray and unfreezes
after-split folios:

1. unfreezes f2, __xa_store(f2)
2. unfreezes f3, __xa_store(f3)
3. unfreezes f4, __xa_store(f4), which overwrites the second f3 to f4.
4. unfreezes f.

Meanwhile, a parallel filemap_get_entry() can read the second f3 from the
xarray and use folio_try_get() on it at step 2 when f3 is unfrozen. Then,
f3 is wrongly returned to user.

After the fix, the xarray looks like below after __split_unmapped_folio():
+----------------+---------+----+----+
|       f        |    f    | f  | f  |
+----------------+---------+----+----+
so that the race window no longer exists.
