Subject: mm: use helper function mapping_allow_writable()
Commit 4bb5f5d9395b ("mm: allow drivers to prevent new writable mappings")
changed i_mmap_writable from unsigned int to atomic_t and add the helper
function mapping_allow_writable() to atomic_inc i_mmap_writable. But it
forgot to use this helper function in dup_mmap() and __vma_link_file().
