After the patches generalizing rmap_walk pulled from upstream recently,
it is safe to call rmap_walk on anonymous pages, but the stale VM_BUG_ON
is still there. It was moved out to rmap_walk_file in the scope of
mainstream commit 9f32624be9435 ("mm/rmap: use rmap_walk() in
page_referenced()"), but I don't want to pull it, because it's quite
intrusive. Instead, let's just pull the bits needed to fix the issue.
