The vma->anon_vma of the child process may be NULL because the entire vma does not contain anonymous pages. In this case, a BUG will occur when the copy_present_page() passes a copy of a non-anonymous page of that vma to the page_add_new_anon_rmap() to set up new anonymous rmap.

This problem has been fixed by the commit <fb3d824d1a46> ("mm/rmap: split page_dup_rmap() into page_dup_file_rmap() and page_try_dup_anon_rmap()"), but still exists in the linux-5.10.y branch.
This patch is not applicable to this version because of the large version differences. Therefore, fix it by adding non-anonymous page check in the copy_present_page().
