Subject: ipc/shm: handle removed segments gracefully in shm_mmap()

commit 1ac0b6dec656f3f78d1c3dd216fad84cb4d0a01e upstream.

remap_file_pages(2) emulation can reach file which represents removed
IPC ID as long as a memory segment is mapped.  It breaks expectations of
IPC subsystem.

Test case (rewritten to be more human readable, originally autogenerated
by syzkaller[1]):

	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <sys/ipc.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <sys/shm.h>

	#define PAGE_SIZE 4096

	int main()
	{
		int id;
		void *p;

		id = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0);
		p = shmat(id, NULL, 0);
		shmctl(id, IPC_RMID, NULL);
		remap_file_pages(p, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0, 7, 0);

	        return 0;
	}

The patch changes shm_mmap() and code around shm_lock() to propagate
locking error back to caller of shm_mmap().
