I agree, thank you: please send to akpm with your signoff and

Fixes: 4c27fe4c4c84 ("userfaultfd: shmem: add shmem_mcopy_atomic_pte for userfaultfd support")
Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>

I bet that 4.11 commit was being worked on before 4.8 reversed the
ordering of info->lock and tree_lock, changing spin_lock(&info->lock)s
to spin_lock_irq*(&info->lock)s - this one is the only hold-out; and
not using userfaultfd, I wouldn't have seen the lockdep report.
