Ok, I've merged the two prep patches, but I think this one here will blow
up, see below.

I guess the idea is that on UP we can steal the lock, but that will
introduce tons of new places where the backing storage can disappear
(everywhere we block, instead of just allocations). And with preempt it
won't work at all, since we could changed the lru lists in another task
while the first one is walking them, leading ot all sorts of corruptions.
So I think it's better to just ignore UP (for now) and return a
conservative false here. Plus a comment explaining why.
