Subject: [PATCH hotfix 6.12 v3 1/5] mm: avoid unsafe VMA hook invocation when error arises on mmap hook

After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced, meaning
that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly call
these hooks.

We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment that
the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing whatever VMA
operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA operations.

We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() - which
is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function and
correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.

All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.

It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:

     ovl_file_operations -> mmap -> ovl_mmap() -> backing_file_mmap()
    coda_file_operations -> mmap -> coda_file_mmap()
     shm_file_operations -> shm_mmap()
shm_file_operations_huge -> shm_mmap()
            dma_buf_fops -> dma_buf_mmap_internal -> i915_dmabuf_ops
	                    -> i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap()

None of these callers interact with vm_ops or mappings in a problematic way
on error, quickly exiting out.
