In __collapse_huge_page_swapin(), we just use the ptl for pte_same() check
in do_swap_page(). In other places, we directly use pte_offset_map_lock(),
so convert it to using pte_offset_map_ro_nolock().

Suboptimal that the pteval comparison + unmap is buried in do_swap_page(). Moving that to the caller is also not significantly better ...
