mm: use vma_start_write_killable() in dup_mmap()

Allow waiting for the VMA write lock to be interrupted by fatal signals.
The explicit check for fatal_signal_pending() can be removed as it is
checked during vma_start_write_killable().  Improves the latency of
killing the task as we do not wait for the reader to finish before
checking for signals.
