PMD and PUD entries revalidation has the same semantics as PTE entry
revalidation. Convert the remaining direct entry dereferences to the
corresponding accessors.

The PTE validation in gup_fast_pte_range() is inconsistent with the
prior value acquisition in the sense that it drops the lockless
access semantics.

Use the lockless accessor not only for the PTE, but also for the PMD
validation, which is likewise inconsistent with the prior value
acquisition in gup_fast_pmd_range().
