This is an addition to commit ae80b404 ("mm: validate the mm before dropping the mmap lock"), because it turns out there were two problems, but lockdep just stopped complaining after finding the first one. The do_vmi_align_munmap() function now drops the mmap lock after doing the validate_mm() call, but it turns out that one of the callers then immediately calls validate_mm() again. That's both a bit silly, and now (again) happens without the mmap lock held. So just remove that validate_mm() call from the caller, but make sure to not lose any coverage by doing that mm sanity checking in the error path of do_vmi_align_munmap() too.
