mm: pgtable: fix incorrect reclaim of non-empty PTE pages
In zap_pte_range(), if the pte lock was released midway, the pte entries
may be refilled with physical pages by another thread, which may cause a
non-empty PTE page to be reclaimed and eventually cause the system to
crash.
To fix it, fall back to the slow path in this case to recheck if all pte
entries are still none.
