Let's use our new interface.  In remap_pfn_range(), we'll now decide
whether we have to track (full VMA covered) or only lookup the cachemode
(partial VMA covered).

Remember what we have to untrack by linking it from the VMA.  When
duplicating VMAs (e.g., splitting, mremap, fork), we'll handle it similar
to anon VMA names, and use a kref to share the tracking.

Once the last VMA un-refs our tracking data, we'll do the untracking,
which simplifies things a lot and should sort our various issues we saw
recently, for example, when partially unmapping/zapping a tracked VMA.

This change implies that we'll keep tracking the original PFN range even
after splitting + partially unmapping it: not too bad, because it was not
working reliably before.  The only thing that kind-of worked before was
shrinking such a mapping using mremap(): we managed to adjust the
reservation in a hacky way, now we won't adjust the reservation but leave
it around until all involved VMAs are gone.

If that ever turns out to be an issue, we could hook into VM splitting
code and split the tracking; however, that adds complexity that might not
be required, so we'll keep it simple for now.
