[PATCH 2/5] mm: unbloat get_futex_key

[Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>]

The follow_page changes in get_futex_key have left it with two almost
identical blocks, when handling the rare case of a futex in a nonlinear
vma.  get_user_pages will itself do that follow_page, and its additional
find_extend_vma is hardly any overhead since the vma is already cached.
Let's just delete the follow_page block and let get_user_pages do it.
