Subject: [mm][RFC][PATCH 1/11] mm accessor for replacing mmap_sem

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>

This patch implements mm accessor, functions for get/release mm->mmap_sem.
For doing some work related to mmap_sem (relaxing it or count events etc..),
bare access to mm->mmap_sem is the first obstacle.

This patch is for removing direct access to mm->mmap_sem.
(For debugging, renaming mm->mmap_sem is better. But considering bisection,
 this patch leave it as it is. The last patch of this series will rename it.)

Following patches will replace direct access to mmap_sem to use these
accessors.

Based on Christoph Lameter's original work.
