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.
