userfaultfd: wp: add the writeprotect API to userfaultfd ioctl
Introduce the new uffd-wp APIs for userspace.
Firstly, we'll allow to do UFFDIO_REGISTER with write protection tracking
using the new UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP flag. Note that this flag can
co-exist with the existing UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING, in which case the
userspace program can not only resolve missing page faults, and at the
same time tracking page data changes along the way.
Secondly, we introduced the new UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT API to do page level
write protection tracking. Note that we will need to register the memory
region with UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP before that.

[peterx@redhat.com: remove useless block, write commit message, check against
VM_MAYWRITE rather than VM_WRITE when register]
