Since it's returning bool, the proper naming scheme would be something
like "munmap_addr_ok()". I don't know how I would replace the "munmap_"
prefix myself though.

Agree with Michal that you could simply return vma, NULL, or error.
Caller can easily find out prev from that, it's not like we have to
count each cpu cycle here. It will be a bit less tricky code as well,
which is a plus.

This function does munlock, not mlock. You could call it e.g.
munlock_vmas().

You keep 'vma' just for the vm_mm? Better extract mm pointer first and
then you don't need the 'tmp'.
