Subject: mm: mremap: validate input before taking lock

This patch is very similar to 84d96d897671 ("mm: madvise: complete input
validation before taking lock"): perform some basic validation of the
input to mremap() before taking the &current->mm->mmap_sem lock.  This
also makes the MREMAP_FIXED => MREMAP_MAYMOVE dependency slightly more
explicit.
