BUG_ON(!vma) assumption is introduced by commit 0bf598d863e3 ("mbind:
add BUG_ON(!vma) in new_vma_page()"), however, even if
address = __vma_address(page, vma);
and
vma->start < address < vma->end
page_address_in_vma() may still return -EFAULT because of many other
conditions in it. As a result the while loop in new_vma_page() may end
with vma=NULL.
This patch revert the commit and also fix the potential dereference NULL
pointer reported by Dan.
