userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops
Current userfaultfd implementation works only with memory managed by core
MM: anonymous, shmem and hugetlb.
First, there is no fundamental reason to limit userfaultfd support only to
the core memory types and userfaults can be handled similarly to regular
page faults provided a VMA owner implements appropriate callbacks.
Second, historically various code paths were conditioned on
vma_is_anonymous(), vma_is_shmem() and is_vm_hugetlb_page() and some of
these conditions can be expressed as operations implemented by a
particular memory type.
Introduce vm_uffd_ops extension to vm_operations_struct that will delegate
memory type specific operations to a VMA owner.
Operations for anonymous memory are handled internally in userfaultfd
using anon_uffd_ops that implicitly assigned to anonymous VMAs.
Start with a single operation, ->can_userfault() that will verify that a
VMA meets requirements for userfaultfd support at registration time.
Implement that method for anonymous, shmem and hugetlb and move relevant
parts of vma_can_userfault() into the new callbacks.
