KVM: guest_memfd: fix NUMA interleave index double-counting
kvm_gmem_get_policy() sets the interleave index (the output param that's
typically named "ilx") to the full page offset (vm_pgoff + vma offset).
But get_vma_policy() adds the page offset on top of the interleave index,
and so the offset is counted twice. This causes NUMA interleaving to skip
nodes: for order-0 pages the effective index jumps by 2 for each
consecutive page.
The vm_op.get_policy() implementation should return only a per-file bias in
the interleave index (like shmem_get_policy does with inode->i_ino),
letting get_vma_policy() add the page-offset component.
Fix by setting the output interleave index to the inode number (a la shmem)
instead of the full page offset, as the index is intended to be a constant,
semi-random value for a given file, e.g. so that interleaving doesn't start
at the same node for every file, and so that allocations are round-robined
across nodes based on the page offset (the selected node would bounce/skip
around if the index isn't constant).
