Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mremap: fix the wrong !vma->vm_file check in copy_vma()

Test-case:

	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <string.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <assert.h>

	void *find_vdso_vaddr(void)
	{
		FILE *perl;
		char buf[32] = {};

		perl = popen("perl -e 'open STDIN,qq|/proc/@{[getppid]}/maps|;"
				"/^(.*?)-.*vdso/ && print hex $1 while <>'", "r");
		fread(buf, sizeof(buf), 1, perl);
		fclose(perl);

		return (void *)atol(buf);
	}

	#define PAGE_SIZE	4096

	void *get_unmapped_area(void)
	{
		void *p = mmap(0, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE,
				MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1,0);
		assert(p != MAP_FAILED);
		munmap(p, PAGE_SIZE);
		return p;
	}

	char save[2][PAGE_SIZE];

	int main(void)
	{
		void *vdso = find_vdso_vaddr();
		void *page[2];

		assert(vdso);
		memcpy(save, vdso, sizeof (save));
		// force another fault on the next check
		assert(madvise(vdso, 2 * PAGE_SIZE, MADV_DONTNEED) == 0);

		page[0] = mremap(vdso,
				PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				get_unmapped_area());
		page[1] = mremap(vdso + PAGE_SIZE,
				PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				get_unmapped_area());

		assert(page[0] != MAP_FAILED && page[1] != MAP_FAILED);
		printf("match: %d %d\n",
			!memcmp(save[0], page[0], PAGE_SIZE),
			!memcmp(save[1], page[1], PAGE_SIZE));

		return 0;
	}

fails without this patch. Before the previous commit it gets the wrong
page, now it segfaults (which is imho better).

This is because copy_vma() wrongly assumes that if vma->vm_file == NULL
is irrelevant until the first fault which will use do_anonymous_page().
This is obviously wrong for the special mapping.
