By the time VMA is freed it has to be detached with the exception of exit_mmap which is destroying the whole VMA tree. Enforce this requirement before freeing the VMA. exit_mmap in the only user calling __vm_area_free directly, therefore it won't trigger the new check. Change VMA initialization to mark new VMAs as detached and change that flag once the VMA is added into a tree.
