mfill_copy_folio_retry() drops mmap_lock for the copy_from_user() call.
During this window, the VMA can be replaced with a different type (e.g.
hugetlb), making the caller's ops pointer stale. Subsequent use of the
stale ops would dispatch into the wrong per-vma handlers.
Capture the VMA's ops via vma_uffd_ops() before dropping the lock and
compare against the current vma_uffd_ops() after re-acquiring it.
Return -EAGAIN if they differ so the operation can be retried. This
avoids comparing against the caller's ops which may have been
overridden to anon_uffd_ops for MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings.
