No upstream commit exists for this commit.

The issue was introduced with backporting upstream commit 091c1dd2d4df
("mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA
in a MM").

The backport incorrectly added unlock logic to a path where
mmap_lock was provided by external context in do_migrate_pages(),
creating lock imbalance when no VMAs are found.

This fixes the report:

WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
6.6.79 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------------
repro/9655 is trying to release lock (&mm->mmap_lock) at:
[<ffffffff81daa36f>] mmap_read_unlock include/linux/mmap_lock.h:173 [inline]
[<ffffffff81daa36f>] do_migrate_pages+0x59f/0x700 mm/mempolicy.c:1196
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
no locks held by repro/9655.

v2: Clarify mmap_lock context in commit description. Fix braces for a
single statement block. Add empty line after VM_BUG_ON to look more
consistent with upstream.
