sched/numa: Do not trap hinting faults for shared libraries
NUMA hinting faults will not migrate a shared executable page mapped by multiple processes on the grounds that the data is probably in the CPU cache already and the page may just bounce between tasks running on multipl nodes. Even if the migration is avoided, there is still the overhead of trapping the fault, updating the statistics, making scheduler placement decisions based on the information etc. If we are never going to migrate the page, it is overhead for no gain and worse a process may be placed on a sub-optimal node for shared executable pages. This patch avoids trapping faults for shared libraries entirely.
