khugepaged: adjust VM_BUG_ON_MM() in __khugepaged_enter() 

[ Upstream commit f3f99d63a8 ]

syzbot crashes on the VM_BUG_ON_MM(khugepaged_test_exit(mm), mm) in
__khugepaged_enter(): yes, when one thread is about to dump core, has set
core_state, and is waiting for others, another might do something calling
__khugepaged_enter(), which now crashes because I lumped the core_state
test (known as "mmget_still_valid") into khugepaged_test_exit().  I still
think it's best to lump them together, so just in this exceptional case,
check mm->mm_users directly instead of khugepaged_test_exit().

Fixes: bbe98f9cad ("khugepaged: khugepaged_test_exit() check mmget_still_valid()")
