VM: add "vm_insert_page()" function 

This is what a lot of drivers will actually want to use to insert
individual pages into a user VMA.  It doesn't have the old PageReserved
restrictions of remap_pfn_range(), and it doesn't complain about partial
remappings.

The page you insert needs to be a nice clean kernel allocation, so you
can't insert arbitrary page mappings with this, but that's not what
people want.

* This allows drivers to insert individual pages they've allocated

*
* The page has to be a nice clean _individual_ kernel allocation.
* If you allocate a compound page, you need to have marked it as
* such (__GFP_COMP), or manually just split the page up yourself
* (which is mainly an issue of doing "set_page_count(page, 1)" for
* each sub-page, and then freeing them one by one when you free
* them rather than freeing it as a compound page).
*
* NOTE! Traditionally this was done with "remap_pfn_range()" which
* took an arbitrary page protection parameter. This doesn't allow
* that. Your vma protection will have to be set up correctly, which
* means that if you want a shared writable mapping, you'd better
* ask for a shared writable mapping!
*
* The page does not need to be reserved.
