mm: remove legacy install_special_mapping() code
All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface (which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative naming), this just force-converts the stragglers. The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code. Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing, which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct vm_special_mapping".
