I would remove VM_BUG_ON_MM() from the lockdep part. If kernel has lockdep
enabled, it's already in heavy debugging mode enough so let's just use it and
not depend on DEBUG_VM. Many sites you convert don't require DEBUG_VM for the
lockdep checks.

With that you can also use the standard lockdep_assert_held() and
lockdep_assert_held_write() wrappers.

If user has both lockdep and DEBUG_VM enabled, should we run both variants?
Perhaps lockdep is enough as it's more comprehensive? Your initial v5 version
was doing that.
