[PATCH v3 24/35] mm: introduce vma detached flag

Per-vma locking mechanism will search for VMA under RCU protection and
then after locking it, has to ensure it was not removed from the VMA
tree after we found it. To make this check efficient, introduce a
vma->detached flag to mark VMAs which were removed from the VMA tree.
