Subject: [PATCH] mm: use a irq-safe __mod_zone_page_state in mlocked_vma_newpage()

mlocked_vma_newpage() is only called in fault path by
page_add_new_anon_rmap(), which is called on a *new* page.
And such page is initially only visible via the pagetables, and the
pte is locked while calling page_add_new_anon_rmap(), so we could use
a irq-safe version of __mod_zone_page_state() here.
