[PATCH v2 1/4] mm: Introduce vm_uffd_ops API

[Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>]

Introduce a generic userfaultfd API for vm_operations_struct, so that one
vma, especially when as a module, can support userfaults without modifying
the core files.  More importantly, when the module can be compiled out of
the kernel.

So, instead of having core mm referencing modules that may not ever exist,
we need to have modules opt-in on core mm hooks instead.

After this API applied, if a module wants to support userfaultfd, the
module should only need to touch its own file and properly define
vm_uffd_ops, instead of changing anything in core mm.

Note that such API will not work for anonymous. Core mm will process
anonymous memory separately for userfault operations like before.

This patch only introduces the API alone so that we can start to move
existing users over but without breaking them.

Currently the uffd_copy() API is almost designed to be the simplistic with
minimum mm changes to move over to the API.
