Subject: [PATCH] vfio/pci: take mmap write lock for io_remap_pfn_range

In VFIO type1, vaddr_get_pfns() will try fault in MMIO PFNs after
pin_user_pages_remote() returns -EFAULT.

follow_fault_pfn
 fixup_user_fault
  handle_mm_fault
   handle_mm_fault
    do_fault
     do_shared_fault
      do_fault
       __do_fault
        vfio_pci_mmap_fault
         io_remap_pfn_range
          remap_pfn_range
           track_pfn_remap
            vm_flags_set         ==> mmap_assert_write_locked(vma->vm_mm)
           remap_pfn_range_notrack
            vm_flags_set         ==> mmap_assert_write_locked(vma->vm_mm)

As io_remap_pfn_range() will call vm_flags_set() to update vm_flags [1],
holding of mmap write lock is required.
So, update vfio_pci_mmap_fault() to drop mmap read lock and take mmap
write lock.
