mremap() had a clever optimization where move_ptes() did not take the anon_vma lock to avoid a race with anon rmap users such as page migration. Instead, the avc's were ordered in such a way that the origin vma was always visited by rmap before the destination. This ordering and the use of page table locks rmap usage safe. However, we want to replace the use of linked lists in anon rmap with an interval tree, and this will make it harder to impose such ordering as the interval tree will always be sorted by the avc->vma->vm_pgoff value. For now, let's replace the anon_vma_moveto_tail() ordering function with proper anon_vma locking in move_ptes(). Once we have the anon interval tree in place, we will re-introduce an optimization to avoid taking these locks in the most common cases.
