mm/vma: do not register private-anon mappings with khugepaged during mmap

We already are registering private-anon VMAs with khugepaged during fault
time, in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page().  Commit "register suitable readonly
file vmas for khugepaged" moved the khugepaged registration logic from
shmem_mmap to the generic mmap path.

The userspace-visible effect should be this: khugepaged will unnecessarily
scan mm's which haven't yet faulted in.  Note that it won't actually
collapse because all PTEs are none.

Now that I think about it, the mm is going to have a file VMA anyways
during fork+exec, so the mm already gets registered during mmap due to the
non-anon case (I *think*), so at least one of either the mmap registration
or fault-time registration is redundant.

Make this logic specific for non-anon mappings.
