On eviction, we acquire the vm->mutex and then wait on the vma->active.
Therefore when binding and pinning the vma, we must follow the same
sequence, lock/pin the vma then mark it active. Otherwise, we mark the
vma as active, then wait for the vm->mutex, and meanwhile the evictor
holding the mutex waits upon us to complete our activity.

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.
