We don't check whether vma->vm_ops is NULL in do_shared_fault() so
there's hardly any point in checking it in wp_page_shared() which gets
called only for shared file mappings as well.

Does this apply equally to the check in wp_pfn_shared()?  Both
wp_page_shared() and wp_pfn_shared() are called for shared file mappings via
do_wp_page().

Yes, it does apply there as well. Added to the commit. There are actually
more places with these checks which don't seem necessary but I didn't want
to do more cleanups than I need... But at least these two come logically
together.
