userfaultfd: shmem: introduce vma_is_shmem
Currently userfault relies on vma_is_anonymous and vma_is_hugetlb to
ensure compatibility of a VMA with userfault. Introduction of
vma_is_shmem allows detection if tmpfs backed VMAs, so that they may be
used with userfaultfd. Current implementation presumes usage of
vma_is_shmem only by slow path routines in userfaultfd, therefore the
vma_is_shmem is not made inline to leave the few remaining free bits in
vm_flags.
