Commit 408579cd627a ("mm: Update do_vmi_align_munmap() return semantics") made the return value and locking semantics of do_vmi_align_munmap() more straightforward, but in the process it ended up unlocking the mmap lock just a tad too early: the debug code doing the mmap layout validation still needs to run with the lock held, or things might change under it while it's trying to validate things. So just move the unlocking to after the validate_mm() call.

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.
