mm: mremap: downgrade mmap_sem to read when shrinking

Other than munmap, mremap might be used to shrink memory mapping too.
So, it may hold write mmap_sem for long time when shrinking large
mapping, as what commit ("mm: mmap: zap pages with read mmap_sem in
munmap") described.

The mremap() will not manipulate vmas anymore after __do_munmap() call for
the mapping shrink use case, so it is safe to downgrade to read mmap_sem.

So, the same optimization, which downgrades mmap_sem to read for zapping
pages, is also feasible and reasonable to this case.

The period of holding exclusive mmap_sem for shrinking large mapping
would be reduced significantly with this optimization.

MREMAP_FIXED and MREMAP_MAYMOVE are more complicated to adopt this
optimization since they need manipulate vmas after do_munmap(),
downgrading mmap_sem may create race window.

Simple mapping shrink is the low hanging fruit, and it may cover the
most cases of unmap with munmap together.
