This fix the below lockdep warning
======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.3.0-rc4+ #190 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
shared/1568 is trying to acquire lock:
(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#12){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811efa0f>] hugetlbfs_file_mmap+0x7d/0x108
but task is already holding lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff810f5589>] sys_mmap_pgoff+0xd4/0x12f
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
