.. related to this, we have that new PER_VMA_LOCK_STATS config entry,
which is 'default y' and has basically no help test.

Please don't do that.

I don't think any of the VM debugging stuff should likely be 'default
y' in the first place, but if they are, they should most definitely
have a good *explanation* for why they should be on for a normal user.
