[PATCH v4 16/33] mm/mmap: write-lock VMAs in vma_prepare before modifying them

[Suren Baghdasaryan]

Write-lock all VMAs which might be affected by a merge, split, expand
or shrink operations. All these operations use vma_prepare() before
making the modifications, therefore it provides a centralized place to
perform VMA locking.
