Subject: [RFC 3/4] lockless vma caching

For accessing vma in lockless style, some modification for vma lookup is
required. Now, rb-tree is used and it doesn't allow read while modification.

This is a trial to caching vma rather than diving into rb-tree. The last
fault vma is cached to pgd's page->cached_vma field. And, add reference count
and waitqueue to vma.

The accessor will have to do

	vma = lookup_vma_cache(mm, address);
	if (vma) {
		if (mm_check_version(mm) && /* no write lock at this point ? */
		    (vma->vm_start <= address) && (vma->vm_end > address))
			goto found_vma; /* start speculative job */
		else
			vma_release_cache(vma);
		vma = NULL;
	}
	vma = find_vma();
found_vma:
	....do some jobs....
	vma_release_cache(vma);

Maybe some more consideration for invalidation point is necessary.
