Peter Xu 67eae54bc2 mm/uffd: fix vma check on userfault for wp
We used to have a report that pte-marker code can be reached even when
uffd-wp is not compiled in for file memories, here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/YzeR+R6b4bwBlBHh@x1n/T/#u

I just got time to revisit this and found that the root cause is we simply
messed up with the vma check, so that for !PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP system, we
will allow UFFDIO_REGISTER of MINOR & WP upon shmem as the check was
wrong:

    if (vm_flags & VM_UFFD_MINOR)
        return is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) || vma_is_shmem(vma);

Where we'll allow anything to pass on shmem as long as minor mode is
requested.

Axel did it right when introducing minor mode but I messed it up in
b1f9e87686 when moving code around.  Fix it.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
