From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: huge pagecache: extend mremap pmd rmap lockout to files
Whatever huge pagecache implementation we go with, file rmap locking must
be added to anon rmap locking, when mremap's move_page_tables() finds a
pmd_trans_huge pmd entry: a simple change, let's do it now.
Factor out take_rmap_locks() and drop_rmap_locks() to handle the locking
for make move_ptes() and move_page_tables(), and delete the VM_BUG_ON_VMA
which rejected vm_file and required anon_vma.
