mm: abstract get_arg_page() stack expansion and mmap read lock
Right now fs/exec.c invokes expand_downwards(), an otherwise internal
implementation detail of the VMA logic in order to ensure that an arg page
can be obtained by get_user_pages_remote().
In order to be able to move the stack expansion logic into mm/vma.c to
make it available to userland testing we need to find an alternative
approach here.
We do so by providing the mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() function which
also helpfully documents what get_arg_page() is doing here and adds an
additional check against VM_GROWSDOWN to make explicit that the stack
expansion logic is only invoked when the VMA is indeed a downward-growing
stack.
This allows expand_downwards() to become a static function.
Importantly, the VMA referenced by mmap_read_maybe_expand() must NOT be
currently user-visible in any way, that is place within an rmap or VMA
tree. It must be a newly allocated VMA.
This is the case when exec invokes this function.
