That's weird, I don't get that on my side with lockdep activated.

There is a call to seqcount_init() in dup_mmap(), in mmap_region() and
__vma_link_rb() and that's enough to cover all the case.

That's being said, it'll be better call seqcount_init each time as soon as a
vma structure is allocated. For the vm_ref_count value, as most of the time the
vma is zero allocated, I don't think this is needed.
I just have to check when new_vma = *old_vma is done, but this often just
follow a vma allocation.
