Subject: buildid: validate page-backed file before parsing build ID
Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2025 18:32:07 +0800

__build_id_parse() only works on page-backed storage.  Its helper paths
eventually call mapping->a_ops->read_folio(), so explicitly reject VMAs
that do not map a regular file or lack valid address_space operations.
