FROMLIST: userfaultfd/shmem: fix minor fault page leak
This fix is analogous to Peter Xu's fix for hugetlb [0]. If we don't
put_page() after getting the page out of the page cache, we leak the
reference.
The fix can be verified by checking /proc/meminfo and running the
userfaultfd selftest in shmem mode. Without the fix, we see MemFree /
MemAvailable steadily decreasing with each run of the test. With the
fix, memory is correctly freed after the test program exits.
