userfaultfd: mcopy_atomic: return -ENOENT when no compatible VMA found

The memory mapping of a process may change between #PF event and the
call to mcopy_atomic that comes to resolve the page fault.  In such
case, there will be no VMA covering the range passed to mcopy_atomic or
the VMA will not have userfaultfd context.

To allow uffd monitor to distinguish those case from other errors, let's
return -ENOENT instead of -EINVAL.

Note, that despite availability of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP there still might be
race between the processing of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP and outstanding
mcopy_atomic in case of non-cooperative uffd usage.
