zfs: Fix a deadlock between page busy and the teardown lock

When rolling back a dataset, ZFS has to purge file data resident in the
system page cache.  To do this, it loops over all vnodes for the
mountpoint and calls vn_pages_remove() to purge pages associated with
the vnode's VM object.  Each page is thus exclusively busied while the
dataset's teardown write lock is held.

When handling a page fault on a mapped ZFS file, FreeBSD's page fault
handler busies newly allocated pages and then uses VOP_GETPAGES to fill
them.  The ZFS getpages VOP acquires the teardown read lock with vnode
pages already busied.  This represents a lock order reversal which can
lead to deadlock.

To break the deadlock, observe that zfs_rezget() need only purge those
pages marked valid, and that pages busied by the page fault handler are,
by definition, invalid.  Furthermore, ZFS pages always transition from
invalid to valid with the teardown lock held, and ZFS never creates
partially valid pages.  Thus, zfs_rezget() can use the new
vn_pages_remove_valid() to skip over pages busied by the fault handler.
