mbind() is required to report EFAULT if range, specified by addr and len,
contains unmapped holes. In current implementation, below rules are applied
for this checking:
1 Unmapped holes at any part of the specified range should be reported as
  EFAULT if mbind() for none MPOL_DEFAULT cases;
2 Unmapped holes at any part of the specified range should be ignored (do
  not reprot EFAULT) if mbind() for MPOL_DEFAULT case;
3 The whole range in an unmapped hole should be reported as EFAULT;
Note that rule 2 does not fullfill the mbind() API definition, but since
that behavior has existed for long days (the internal flag
MPOL_MF_DISCONTIG_OK is for this purpose), this patch does not plan to
change it.

In current code, application observed inconsistent behavior on rule 1 and
rule 2 respectively. That inconsistency is fixed as below details.

Cases of rule 1:
1) Hole at head side of range. Current code reprot EFAULT, no change by
this patch.
[  vma  ][ hole ][  vma  ]
            [  range  ]
2) Hole at middle of range. Current code report EFAULT, no change by
this patch.
[  vma  ][ hole ][ vma ]
   [     range      ]
3) Hole at tail side of range. Current code do not report EFAULT, this
patch fix it.
[  vma  ][ hole ][ vma ]
   [  range  ]

Cases of rule 2:
1) Hole at head side of range. Current code reprot EFAULT, this patch
fix it.
[  vma  ][ hole ][  vma  ]
            [  range  ]
2) Hole at middle of range. Current code do not report EFAULT, no change
by this patch.
this patch.
[  vma  ][ hole ][ vma]
   [     range      ]
3) Hole at tail side of range. Current code do not report EFAULT, no
change by this patch.
[  vma  ][ hole ][ vma]
   [  range  ]

This patch has no changes to rule 3.

The unmapped hole checking can also be handled by using .pte_hole(),
instead of .test_walk(). But .pte_hole() is called for holes inside and
outside vma, which causes more cost, so this patch keeps the original
design with .test_walk().
