Commit 8ef7b9e176 ("powerpc/pseries/vas: Close windows with DLPAR
core removal") unmaps the window paste address and issues HCALL to
close window in the hypervisor for migration or DLPAR core removal
events. So holds mmap_mutex and then mmap lock before unmap the
paste address. But if the user space issue mmap paste address at
the same time with the migration event, coproc_mmap() is called
after holding the mmap lock which can trigger deadlock when trying
to acquire mmap_mutex in coproc_mmap().

//wait for mmap_mutex Release mmap lock
mmap vma unlock mmap_mutex
update window status

...
Release mmap lock
Fix this deadlock issue by holding mmap lock first before mmap_mutex
in reconfig_close_windows().
