[RFC v2 11/21] mm: thp: handle split failure in userfaultfd move_pages()

[Usama Arif]

The UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl's move_pages() loop splits a huge PMD when the
folio is pinned and can't be moved at PMD granularity.

If the split fails, the PMD stays huge and move_pages_pte() can't
process individual pages. Break out of the loop on split failure
and return -ENOMEM to the caller. This is similar to how other
allocation failures (__pte_alloc, mm_alloc_pmd) are handled in
move_pages().
