Oh I like this. Want more mm/mmap.c stuff to look like this, abstracting
actual functionality to mm/vma.c...

This means we will arch_unmap() first, before realising we can't unmap,
however there are a number of other error conditions that would cause a
similar outcome in do_vmi_align_munmap() so I don't think that's a problem.
