mm: Add new func _install_special_mapping() to mmap.c The _install_special_mapping() is the new base function for install_special_mapping(). This function will return a pointer of the created VMA or a error code in an ERR_PTR(). This new function will be needed by the for the x86 vdso 32-bit support to map the additonal vvar and hpet pages into the 32 bit address space. This will be done with io_remap_pfn_range() and remap_pfn_range, which requieres a vm_area_struct.
