proc/task_mmu: change proc_get_vma() to stop returning gate VMA at the end

proc_get_vma() returning gate VMA at the end is desirable for the its
current m_start/m_next callers, as they need to report a gate VMA at the
end of the address space.  This behavior is very specific to these callers
and makes proc_get_vma() hard to use for other purposes.

Move this usage-specific behavior into the callers themselves so that
proc_get_vma() returns either a valid VMA, an error or a NULL when no more
VMAs are available.  This makes it more generic, simpler and usable in the
later patches.
