userfaultfd: shmem: avoid a lockup resulting from corrupted page->flags
Use the non atomic version of __SetPageUptodate while the page is still
private and not visible to lookup operations. Using the non atomic
version after the page is already visible to lookups is unsafe as there
would be concurrent lock_page operation modifying the page->flags while
it runs.
This solves a lockup in find_lock_entry with the userfaultfd_shmem
selftest.
