kmap_atomic() has been deprecated in favor of kmap_local_{folio,page}.
Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page in
__wp_page_copy_user().
kmap_atomic() disables preemption in !PREEMPT_RT kernels and
unconditionally disables also page-faults. My limited knowledge of the
implementation of __wp_page_copy_user() makes me think that the latter
side effect is still needed here, but kmap_local_page() is implemented
not to disable page-faults.
So, in addition to the conversion to local mapping, add explicit
pagefault_disable() / pagefault_enable() between mapping and un-mapping.
