Don't set the lock to the mm lock so that the detached VMA tree does not complain about being unlocked when the mmap_lock is dropped prior to freeing the tree. Introduce mt_on_stack() for setting the external lock to NULL only when LOCKDEP is used. Move the destroying of the detached tree outside the mmap lock all together.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
