mm: add dummy can_do_mlock() helper

On kernels without CONFIG_MMU, we get a link error for the siw driver:

drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_mem.o: In function `siw_umem_get':
siw_mem.c:(.text+0x4c8): undefined reference to `can_do_mlock'

This is probably not the only driver that needs the function and could
otherwise build correctly without CONFIG_MMU, so add a dummy variant that
always returns false.
