Maybe we want to fix this comment too some day:

		/*
		 * Nothing to do: this vma is already registered into this
		 * userfaultfd and with the right tracking mode too.
		 */

But I don't think it's anything urgent since it's clear it means the
other way round and it can potentially be touched up in any further
cleanup/fixes of uffd.
