[PATCH v2 1/1] userfaultfd: don't pin the user memory in userfaultfd_file_create()

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>]

userfaultfd_file_create() increments mm->mm_users; this means that the memory
won't be unmapped/freed if mm owner exits/execs, and UFFDIO_COPY after that can
populate the orphaned mm more.

Change userfaultfd_file_create() and userfaultfd_ctx_put() to use mm->mm_count
to pin mm_struct. This means that atomic_inc_not_zero(mm->mm_users) is needed
when we are going to actually play with this memory. Except handle_userfault()
path doesn't need this, the caller must already have a reference.

The patch adds the new trivial helper, mmget_not_zero(), it can have more users.
