mm: tighten up the fault path a little 

The round_up() macro generates a couple of unnecessary instructions
in this usage:

    48cd:       49 8b 47 50             mov    0x50(%r15),%rax
    48d1:       48 83 e8 01             sub    $0x1,%rax
    48d5:       48 0d ff 0f 00 00       or     $0xfff,%rax
    48db:       48 83 c0 01             add    $0x1,%rax
    48df:       48 c1 f8 0c             sar    $0xc,%rax
    48e3:       48 39 c3                cmp    %rax,%rbx
    48e6:       72 2e                   jb     4916 <filemap_fault+0x96>

If we change round_up() to ((x) + __round_mask(x, y)) & ~__round_mask(x, y)
then GCC can see through it and remove the mask (because that would be
dead code given the subsequent shift):

    48cd:       49 8b 47 50             mov    0x50(%r15),%rax
    48d1:       48 05 ff 0f 00 00       add    $0xfff,%rax
    48d7:       48 c1 e8 0c             shr    $0xc,%rax
    48db:       48 39 c3                cmp    %rax,%rbx
    48de:       72 2e                   jb     490e <filemap_fault+0x8e>

But that's problematic because we'd evaluate 'y' twice.  Converting
round_up into an inline function prevents it from being used in other
definitions.  The easiest thing to do is just change these three usages
of round_up to use DIV_ROUND_UP.  Also add an unlikely() because GCC's
heuristic is wrong in this case.
