mm: thp: use down_read_trylock() in khugepaged to avoid long block

In the current design, khugepaged needs to acquire mmap_sem before
scanning an mm.  But in some corner cases, khugepaged may scan a process
which is modifying its memory mapping, so khugepaged blocks in
uninterruptible state.  But the process might hold the mmap_sem for a
long time when modifying a huge memory space and it may trigger the
below khugepaged hung issue:

  INFO: task khugepaged:270 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
  Tainted: G E 4.9.65-006.ali3000.alios7.x86_64 #1
  "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

    khugepaged+0x476/0x11d0
    kthread+0xe6/0x100
    ret_from_fork+0x25/0x30

So it sounds pointless to just block khugepaged waiting for the
semaphore so replace down_read() with down_read_trylock() to move to
scan the next mm quickly instead of just blocking on the semaphore so
that other processes can get more chances to install THP.  Then
khugepaged can come back to scan the skipped mm when it has finished the
current round full_scan.

And it appears that the change can improve khugepaged efficiency a
little bit.
