mm: introduce vma_is_anonymous(vma) helper
commit b5330628546616af14ff23075fbf8d4ad91f6e25 upstream. special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken. It seems it was always wrong, but this didn't matter until vdso/vvar started to use more than one page. And after this change vma_is_anonymous() becomes really trivial, it simply checks vm_ops == NULL. However, I do think the helper makes sense. There are a lot of ->vm_ops != NULL checks, the helper makes the caller's code more understandable (self-documented) and this is more grep-friendly. This patch (of 3): Preparation. Add the new simple helper, vma_is_anonymous(vma), and change handle_pte_fault() to use it. It will have more users. The name is not accurate, say a hpet_mmap()'ed vma is not anonymous. Perhaps it should be named vma_has_fault() instead. But it matches the logic in mmap.c/memory.c (see next changes). "True" just means that a page fault will use do_anonymous_page().
