fs/ext4: transition from deprecated .mmap hook to .mmap_prepare
Since commit c84bf6dd2b83 ("mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback"), the f_op->mmap() hook has been deprecated in favour of f_op->mmap_prepare(). This callback is invoked in the mmap() logic far earlier, so error handling can be performed more safely without complicated and bug-prone state unwinding required should an error arise. This hook also avoids passing a pointer to a not-yet-correctly-established VMA avoiding any issues with referencing this data structure. It rather provides a pointer to the new struct vm_area_desc descriptor type which contains all required state and allows easy setting of required parameters without any consideration needing to be paid to locking or reference counts. Note that nested filesystems like overlayfs are compatible with an .mmap_prepare() callback since commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systems").
