mm/memory-failure: fix detection of memory_failure() handlers

Some pagemap types, like MEMORY_DEVICE_GENERIC (device-dax) do not even
have pagemap ops which results in crash signatures like this:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
PGD 8000000205073067 P4D 8000000205073067 PUD 2062b3067 PMD 0

Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015

Check for ops before checking if the ops have a memory_failure()
handler.
