Besides the NOWAIT typo all look sane. Since there seems to need at least
one more version I'll still comment on a few things..

AFAIU ctx->mm must be the same as vma->vm_mm here, so maybe we can also
drop *ctx here altogether if we've already dropped plenty.

Here is not the only place that we can have FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT.
E.g. folio_lock_or_retry() can also get it, so check here may or may not
help much.
The other thing is please consider not using BUG_ON if possible.
WARN_ON_ONCE() is IMHO always more preferred if the kernel can still try to
run even if it triggers.
I'd rather drop this change, leaving space for future when vma lock may be
supported in gup paths with NOWAIT, then here it'll work naturally, afaiu.
If we really want a sanity check, maybe the best place is when entering
handle_mm_fault(), to be explicit, sanitize_fault_flags().

The movement is fine but may not be the cleanest. It'll be nicer to me if
it's put at the right place when introduced - after all in the same series.
