userfaultfd: shmem: allow registration of shared memory ranges

Expand the userfaultfd_register/unregister routines to allow shared
memory VMAs.

Currently, there is no UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE and write-protection support for
shared memory VMAs, which is reflected in ioctl methods supported by
uffdio_register.
