[1/4] mm: abstract the vma_merge()/split_vma() pattern for mprotect() et al.

mprotect() and other functions which change VMA parameters over a range
each employ a pattern of:-

1. Attempt to merge the range with adjacent VMAs.
2. If this fails, and the range spans a subset of the VMA, split it
accordingly.

This is open-coded and duplicated in each case. Also in each case most of
the parameters passed to vma_merge() remain the same.

Create a new static function, vma_modify(), which abstracts this operation,
accepting only those parameters which can be changed.

To avoid the mess of invoking each function call with unnecessary
parameters, create wrapper functions for each of the modify operations,
parameterised only by what is required to perform the action.

Note that the userfaultfd_release() case works even though it does not
split VMAs - since start is set to vma->vm_start and end is set to
vma->vm_end, the split logic does not trigger.

In addition, since we calculate pgoff to be equal to vma->vm_pgoff + (start
- vma->vm_start) >> PAGE_SHIFT, and start - vma->vm_start will be 0 in this
instance, this invocation will remain unchanged.

Nice!

This will hit also for IS_ERR(prev), no?

So here's too late to test for it. AFAICS the other usages are like this as
well.

Could these be instead static inline wrappers, and vma_modify exported
instead of static?

Maybe we could also move this to mm/internal.h? Which would mean
fs/userfaultfd.c would have to start including it, but as it's already so
much rooted in mm, it shouldn't be wrong?

Oh dear :) yes you're right, I will rework this in v2 for all cases.

I started by trying this but sadly the vma_policy() helper needs the
mempolicy header and trying to important that into mm.h produces a horror
show of things breaking.

As discussed via IRC, will look to see whether we can sensibly move this
define into mm_types.h and then we can shift these.

I'm not a fan of trying to have fs/userfaultfd.c to important
mm/internal.h, seems like a bridge too far there. I think it's a bit odd
that the fs bit invokes mm bits but the mm bit doesn't, but this might be
an artifact of how uffd is implemented.

I do in principle like the idea, as we can then seriously shift what I
consider to be impl details (mergey/splitty) to being as internal as we can
make it, but I think perhaps it's something we can address later if it
makes sense to move some uffd bits around.
