From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Apply the rmap chain lock batching to anon_vma_unlink() too.
This speeds up exit() on process chains with many processes,
when there is a lot of sharing.
Unfortunately this doesn't fix all lock contention -- file vmas
have a mapping lock that is also a problem. And even existing
anon_vmas still contend. But it's better than before.
