mm/mempolicy: use vma iterator & maple state instead of vma linked list

Reworked the way mbind_range() finds the first VMA to reuse the maple
state and limit the number of tree walks needed.

Note, this drops the VM_BUG_ON(!vma) call, which would catch a start
address higher than the last VMA.  The code was written in a way that
allowed no VMA updates to occur and still return success.  There should be
no functional change to this scenario with the new code.
