Mel Gorman 4eb2b1dcd5 hugetlb: acquire the i_mmap_lock before walking the prio_tree to unmap a page
When the owner of a mapping fails COW because a child process is holding a
reference, the children VMAs are walked and the page is unmapped.  The
i_mmap_lock is taken for the unmapping of the page but not the walking of
the prio_tree.  In theory, that tree could be changing if the lock is not
held.  This patch takes the i_mmap_lock properly for the duration of the
prio_tree walk.
