Previously, guest-memfd allocations followed local NUMA node id in absence of process mempolicy, resulting in arbitrary memory allocation. Moreover, mbind() couldn't be used by the VMM as guest memory wasn't mapped into userspace when allocation occurred.
Enable NUMA policy support by implementing vm_ops for guest-memfd mmap operation. This allows the VMM to map the memory and use mbind() to set the desired NUMA policy. The policy is stored in the inode structure via kvm_gmem_inode_info, as memory policy is a property of the memory (struct inode) itself. The policy is then retrieved via mpol_shared_policy_lookup() and passed to filemap_grab_folio_mpol() to ensure that allocations follow the specified memory policy.
This enables the VMM to control guest memory NUMA placement by calling mbind() on the mapped memory regions, providing fine-grained control over guest memory allocation across NUMA nodes.
The policy change only affect future allocations and does not migrate existing memory. This matches mbind(2)'s default behavior which affects only new allocations unless overridden with MPOL_MF_MOVE/MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flags, which are not supported for guest_memfd as it is unmovable.
