Moving just that one define is less than ideal, and the
kernel test robot seems unhappy, too.

It may be cleaner to just move __vma_private_lock into
hugetlb.c, where it has all the dependencies it needs.

It isn't being called from anywhere else, anyway.

Hopefully that will keep the kernel test robot happy, too :)
