Acquiring the mmap_lock during exit_mmap() was only added recently in
v5.17 by commit 64591e8605d6 ("mm: protect free_pgtables with mmap_lock
write lock in exit_mmap"). Soon after, asserts for holding this lock
were added to the binder_alloc_set_vma() callback by the following two
fix commits in mainline: commit b0cab80ecd54 ("android: binder: fix
lockdep check on clearing vma") and commit a43cfc87caaf ("android:
binder: stop saving a pointer to the VMA").
These two fix commits were picked for stable trees including v5.15 were
unfortunately the mmap_lock is not held during exit_mmap() yet and this
unmet dependency leads to the following BUG report:

This patch removes the inaccurate assert specifically from v5.15 since
it's the only release with such issue. Note the mmap_lock is technically
not needed here as the mm->mm_users has dropped to zero at this point.

============
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.
