Why do that after going through the process of revalidating the inode
etc.? Just replace nfs_file_mmap() with a function returning ENOSYS in
the case of CONFIG_MMU.

Better still, in the case of CONFIG_MMU, instead of having an
nfs_file_mmap(), just replace the .mmap field in nfs_file_operations
with a call to generic_file_mmap().
