Re: [PATCH 4/6] userfaultfd: rename vm_userfaultfd_ctx to vm_uffd_state

Rename struct vm_userfaultfd_ctx to vm_uffd_state to better reflect that
it will represent the userfaultfd state for a VMA rather than just a
context pointer.

This is a preparatory step for extending the struct with a mode field.

Mechanical rename, no functional change.
