    s390/uv: fully validate the VMA before calling follow_page()
    
    [ Upstream commit 46c22ffd2772201662350bc7b94b9ea9d3ee5ac2 ]
    
    We should not walk/touch page tables outside of VMA boundaries when
    holding only the mmap sem in read mode. Evil user space can modify the
    VMA layout just before this function runs and e.g., trigger races with
    page table removal code since commit dd2283f2605e ("mm: mmap: zap pages
    with read mmap_sem in munmap").
    
    find_vma() does not check if the address is >= the VMA start address;
    use vma_lookup() instead.
