The locking here now matches the locking in memfd_tag_pins() that
was changed in ef3038a573aa8bf2f3797b110f7244b55a0e519c (part of 4.20-rc1).
I didn't notice that I was fixing a bug when I changed the locking.
This bug has been present since 05f65b5c70909ef686f865f0a85406d74d75f70f
(part of 3.17) so backports will need to go further back.  This code has
moved around a bit (mm/shmem.c) and the APIs have changed, so it will
take some effort.
