vm_open() is not allowed to fail. Fortunately we are guaranteed that
the pages are already pinned, thanks to the initial mmap which is now
being cloned into a forked process, and only need to increment the
refcnt. So just increment it directly. Previously if a signal was
delivered at the wrong time to the forking process, the
mutex_lock_interruptible() could fail resulting in the pages_use_count
not being incremented.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
