No, the motivation is to prevern re-attaching an already attached vma
or re-detaching an already detached vma for state consistency. I guess
I should amend the description to make that clear.

Well, in that case somebody should get an assertion. If
vma_iter_store() is called against already attached vma, we get this
assertion:
vma_iter_store()
vma_mark_attached()
vma_assert_detached()
If vma_iter_store_attached() is called against a detached vma, we get this one:
vma_iter_store_attached()
vma_assert_attached()
Does that address your concern?

Ok. A bit more churn but should not be too bad.

Ack. I'll amend the patch description to make that clear.

CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK depends on !CONFIG_NOMMU, so for nommu case all
these attach/detach functions become NOPs.
