[PATCH 2/3] mm/vma: remove mmap_action->success_hook

[Lorenzo Stoakes <ljs@kernel.org>]

This hook was introduced to work around code that seemed to absolutely
require access to a VMA pointer upon mmap().

However, providing this hook leaves a backdoor to drivers getting access to
the very thing mmap_prepare eliminates - a pointer to the VMA.

Let's solve this contradiction by removing it. The key intended user was
hugetlb, however it seems that the best course now is to avoid allowing all
drivers the ability to work around mmap_prepare, and find a different
solution there.
