Subject: mm: lock a vma before stack expansion
Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2023 21:32:10 -0700
With recent changes necessitating mmap_lock to be held for write while
expanding a stack, per-VMA locks should follow the same rules and be
write-locked to prevent page faults into the VMA being expanded. Add the
necessary locking.
