dax: Fix missed wakeup with PMD faults
RocksDB can hang indefinitely when using a DAX file. This is due to a bug in the XArray conversion when handling a PMD fault and finding a PTE entry. We use the wrong index in the hash and end up waiting on the wrong waitqueue. There's actually no need to wait; if we find a PTE entry while looking for a PMD entry, we can return immediately as we know we should fall back to a PTE fault (which may not conflict with the lock held). We reuse the XA_RETRY_ENTRY to signal a conflicting entry was found. This value can never be found in an XArray while holding its lock, so it does not create an ambiguity.
