Private mapped ashmem doesn't install vm fault handler.
So, do_anonymous_page is called for handling fault in handle_pte_fault().
This type of backed memory isn't related to asma->file which is used by
ashmem shrinker. Shrinking unpinned area for this mapping
will not shrink memory actually.
Although it's memory doesn't actually removed, pin status will
return ASHMEM_WAS_PURGED. So application will re-load content.
This is needless overhead, so invalidate pin/unpin ioctl behavior for
private map.
