Lorenzo Stoakes da003453dc doc: update porting, vfs documentation for mmap_prepare actions
Now we have introduced the ability to specify that actions should be taken
after a VMA is established via the vm_area_desc->action field as specified
in mmap_prepare, update both the VFS documentation and the porting guide
to describe this.
