mm,mremap: bail out earlier in mremap_to under map pressure

When using mremap() syscall in addition to MREMAP_FIXED flag, mremap()
calls mremap_to() which does the following:

1) unmaps the destination region where we are going to move the map
2) If the new region is going to be smaller, we unmap the last part
   of the old region

Then, we will eventually call move_vma() to do the actual move.

move_vma() checks whether we are at least 4 maps below max_map_count
before going further, otherwise it bails out with -ENOMEM.  The problem
is that we might have already unmapped the vma's in steps 1) and 2), so
it is not possible for userspace to figure out the state of the vmas
after it gets -ENOMEM, and it gets tricky for userspace to clean up
properly on error path.

While it is true that we can return -ENOMEM for more reasons (e.g: see
may_expand_vm() or move_page_tables()), I think that we can avoid this
scenario if we check early in mremap_to() if the operation has high
chances to succeed map-wise.

Should that not be the case, we can bail out before we even try to unmap
anything, so we make sure the vma's are left untouched in case we are
likely to be short of maps.

The thumb-rule now is to rely on the worst-scenario case we can have.
That is when both vma's (old region and new region) are going to be
split in 3, so we get two more maps to the ones we already hold (one per
each).  If current map count + 2 maps still leads us to 4 maps below the
threshold, we are going to pass the check in move_vma().

Of course, this is not free, as it might generate false positives when
it is true that we are tight map-wise, but the unmap operation can
release several vma's leading us to a good state.

Another approach was also investigated [1], but it may be too much
hassle for what it brings.
