[PATCH v2 1/3] mm: introduce vma_is_anonymous(vma) helper

[Oleg Nesterov]

Preparation. Add the new simple helper, vma_is_anonymous(vma), and
change handle_pte_fault() to use it. It will have more users.

The name is not accurate, say a hpet_mmap()'ed vma is not anonymous.
Perhaps it should be named vma_has_fault() instead. But it matches
the logic in mmap.c/memory.c (see next changes). "True" just means
that a page fault will use do_anonymous_page().
