Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm: convert mm_lock_seq to a proper seqcount

Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock
variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern.
This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking
mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be
used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions.
As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type
of mm_lock_seq.sequence.

Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>
Signed-off-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@...gle.com>
---
Applies over mm-unstable

This conversion was discussed at [1] and these patches will likely be
incorporated into the next version od Andrii's patcset.
The issue of the seqcount_t.sequence being an unsigned rather than
unsigned long will be addressed separately in collaoration with Jann Horn.
