userfaultfd: refuse to __mfill_atomic_pte() for unsupported VMAs

__mfill_atomic_pte() unconditionally dereferences ops because there is an
assumption that VMAs that can undergo mfill_* operations are vetted on
registration and must have valid vm_uffd_ops.

Add a guard against potential bugs and make sure __mfill_atomic_pte()
bails out if ops is NULL.
