don't put symlink bodies in pagecache into highmem
commit 21fc61c73c3903c4c312d0802da01ec2b323d174 upstream. kmap() in page_follow_link_light() needed to go - allowing to hold an arbitrary number of kmaps for long is a great way to deadlocking the system. new helper (inode_nohighmem(inode)) needs to be used for pagecache symlinks inodes; done for all in-tree cases. page_follow_link_light() instrumented to yell about anything missed.
