Is the vm_file check here correct for classifying anonymous VMAs?
Per mm-vma.md, vma->vm_file is not a reliable indicator of file-backed
status. Some anonymous VMAs carry a vm_file reference, such as private
mappings of /dev/zero set via vma_set_anonymous() which sets vm_ops
= NULL but leaves vm_file populated.

The canonical test is vma_is_anonymous(vma) (checking !vma->vm_ops).
For a private /dev/zero mapping, this code would pass /dev/zero to
build_id_parse_file() instead of immediately falling back to the raw IP.

This was flagged in v3 review by bot+bpf-ci@kernel.org and acknowledged
by the author as a minor edge case but left unchanged for consistency
with existing code elsewhere in stackmap.c:

https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/1f275575e3c2309dc7b7f099c7e5cd47bb25182d94883ca0893cf4aaf03c954c@mail.kernel.org/

Should this be switched to vma_is_anonymous(), or is it preferable to
keep the current pattern and address it later across all of stackmap.c?
