userfaultfd: call userfaultfd_unmap_prep only if __split_vma succeeds
A __split_vma is not a worthy event to report, and it's definitely not a unmap so it would be incorrect to report unmap for the whole region to the userfaultfd manager if a __split_vma fails. So only call userfaultfd_unmap_prep after the __vma_splitting is over and do_munmap cannot fail anymore. Also add unlikely because it's better to optimize for the vast majority of apps that aren't using userfaultfd in a non cooperative way. Ideally we should also find a way to eliminate the branch entirely if CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n, but it would complicate things so stick to unlikely for now.
