mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in compat_vma_mmap_prepare()
In commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systems") we introduced the ability for stacked drivers and file systems to correctly invoke the f_op->mmap_prepare() handler from an f_op->mmap() handler via a compatibility layer implemented in compat_vma_mmap_prepare(). This populates vm_area_desc fields according to those found in the (not yet fully initialised) VMA passed to f_op->mmap(). However this function implicitly assumes that the struct file which we are operating upon is equal to vma->vm_file. This is not a safe assumption in all cases. The only really sane situation in which this matters would be something like e.g. i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap() which invokes vfs_mmap() against obj->base.filp: ret = vfs_mmap(obj->base.filp, vma); if (ret) return ret; And then sets the VMA's file to this, should the mmap operation succeed: vma_set_file(vma, obj->base.filp); That is - it is the file that is intended to back the VMA mapping. This is not an issue currently, as so far we have only implemented f_op->mmap_prepare() handlers for some file systems and internal mm uses, and the only stacked f_op->mmap() operations that can be performed upon these are those in backing_file_mmap() and coda_file_mmap(), both of which use vma->vm_file. However, moving forward, as we convert drivers to using f_op->mmap_prepare(), this will become a problem. Resolve this issue by explicitly setting desc->file to the provided file parameter and update callers accordingly. Callers are expected to read desc->file and update desc->vm_file - the former will be the file provided by the caller (if stacked, this may differ from vma->vm_file). If the caller needs to differentiate between the two they therefore now can. While we are here, also provide a variant of compat_vma_mmap_prepare() that operates against a pointer to any file_operations struct and does not assume that the file_operations struct we are interested in is file->f_op. This function is __compat_vma_mmap_prepare() and we invoke it from compat_vma_mmap_prepare() so that we share code between the two functions. This is important, because some drivers provide hooks in a separate struct, for instance struct drm_device provides an fops field for this purpose. Also update the VMA selftests accordingly.
