[PATCH] mm: Fix a null ptr deref with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled in wp_page_reuse

From: Zack Rusin <zackr at vmware.com>

Write page faults on last references might not have a valid page anymore.
wp_page_reuse has always dealt with that scenario by making
sure the page isn't null (or the reference was shared) before doing
anything with it. Recently added checks in VM_BUG_ON (enabled by the
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM option) use PageAnon helpers which assume the passed
page is never null, before making sure there is a valid page to work
with.

Move the VM_BUG_ON, which unconditionally uses the page, after the
code that checks that we have a valid one.

Fixes a kernel oops, which is easy to reproduce with 3D apps on arm64 and
x86 on kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM set:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address dfff800000000001
