In that case, mfill_atomic() releases the locks, retries copying the data with locks dropped and then re-locks the destination VMA and re-establishes PMD. Since this retry-reget dance is only relevant for UFFDIO_COPY and it never happens for other UFFDIO_ operations, make it a part of mfill_atomic_pte_copy() that actually implements UFFDIO_COPY for anonymous memory. As a temporal safety measure to avoid breaking biscection mfill_atomic_pte_copy() makes sure to never return -ENOENT so that the loop in mfill_atomic() won't retry copiyng outside of mmap_lock. This is removed later when shmem implementation will be updated later and the loop in mfill_atomic() will be adjusted.
