Userfaultfd can monitor remote mm's [1]. In this case, dup_userfaultfd() and
dup_userfaultfd_complete() create uffd context for the new process and
notify userspace uffd monitor about this new context. The uffd monitor then
can perform uffd operations on the new context.

On the right side the mmget_not_zero() will take the reference for the mm of the newly
created process.
