mm/hugetlb: remove unnecessary holding of hugetlb_lock

Browse Source 
In isolate_or_dissolve_huge_folio(), after acquiring the hugetlb_lock, it
is only for the purpose of obtaining the correct hstate, which is then
passed to alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio().

alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio() itself also acquires the hugetlb_lock. 
We can have alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio() obtain the hstate by
itself, so that isolate_or_dissolve_huge_folio() no longer needs to
acquire the hugetlb_lock.  In addition, we keep the folio_test_hugetlb()
check within isolate_or_dissolve_huge_folio().  By doing so, we can avoid
disrupting the normal path by vainly holding the hugetlb_lock.

replace_free_hugepage_folios() has the same issue, and we should address
it as well.

Addresses a possible performance problem which was added by the hotfix
113ed54ad2 ("mm/hugetlb: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference when
replacing free hugetlb folios").
