mm: fix the racy mm->locked_vm change in
"mm->locked_vm += grow" and vm_stat_account() in acct_stack_growth() are not safe; multiple threads using the same ->mm can do this at the same time trying to expans different vma's under down_read(mmap_sem). This means that one of the "locked_vm += grow" changes can be lost and we can miss munlock_vma_pages_all() later. Move this code into the caller(s) under mm->page_table_lock. All other updates to ->locked_vm hold mmap_sem for writing.
