remap_file_pages() decommission

Hi Andrew,

This patchset replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap and remove code to support non-linear mappings.

Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no legitimate
use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.

It's not yet ready to apply. Just to give rough idea of what can we get if
we'll deprecated remap_file_pages().

I need to split patches properly and write correct commit messages. And there's
still code to remove.

Comments?

  mm: replace remap_file_pages() syscall with emulation
  mm: kill vm_operations_struct->remap_pages
  mm: kill zap_details->nonlinear_vma
  mm, rmap: kill rmap_walk_control->file_nonlinear()
  mm, rmap: kill vma->shared.nonlinear
  mm, rmap: kill mapping->i_mmap_nonlinear
  mm: kill VM_NONLINEAR and FAULT_FLAG_NONLINEAR
  mm, x86: kill pte_to_pgoff(), pgoff_to_pte() and pte_file*()
