Subject: mm: fix some minor per-VMA lock issues in userfaultfd
Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2024 15:45:02 +0100

Rename lock_vma() to uffd_lock_vma() because it really is uffd specific. 
Remove comment referencing unlock_vma() which doesn't exist.  Fix the
comment about lock_vma_under_rcu() which I just made incorrect.
