x86/mm: Disallow vsyscall page read for copy_from_kernel_nofault()

When trying to use copy_from_kernel_nofault() to read vsyscall page
through a bpf program, the following oops was reported:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff600000

  ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

The oops is triggered when:

1) A bpf program uses bpf_probe_read_kernel() to read from the vsyscall
page and invokes copy_from_kernel_nofault() which in turn calls
__get_user_asm().

2) Because the vsyscall page address is not readable from kernel space,
a page fault exception is triggered accordingly.

3) handle_page_fault() considers the vsyscall page address as a user
space address instead of a kernel space address. This results in the
fix-up setup by bpf not being applied and a page_fault_oops() is invoked
due to SMAP.

Considering handle_page_fault() has already considered the vsyscall page
address as a userspace address, fix the problem by disallowing vsyscall
page read for copy_from_kernel_nofault().
