[PATCH 1/2] vmsplice: unmap gifted pages for recipient

[Robert C Jennings]

Introduce use of the unused SPLICE_F_MOVE flag for vmsplice to zap
pages.

When vmsplice is called with flags (SPLICE_F_GIFT | SPLICE_F_MOVE) the
writer's gift'ed pages would be zapped.  This patch supports further work
to move vmsplice'd pages rather than copying them.  That patch has the
restriction that the page must not be mapped by the source for the move,
otherwise it will fall back to copying the page.

Since the RFC went out I have coalesced the zap_page_range() call to
operate on VMAs rather than calling this for each page.  For a 256MB
vmsplice this reduced the write side 50% from the RFC.
