[PATCH] mm: Allow fault_dirty_shared_page() to be called under the VMA lock

[PATCH] mm: Allow fault_dirty_shared_page() to be called under the VMA lock

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

By making maybe_unlock_mmap_for_io() handle the VMA lock correctly,
we make fault_dirty_shared_page() safe to be called without the mmap
lock held.

Andrew, can you insert this before "mm: handle faults that merely update
the accessed bit under the VMA lock" please?  It could be handled as a fix
patch, but it actually stands on its own as a separate patch.  No big deal
if it has to go in after that patch.
