Yeah, something didn't feel right here and I meant to recheck, now regret
rushing to submit the patch.
Rethinking, I think the pt_mem_regions_lock is not needed to protect
the uaddr because unmap will properly serialize via the mm lock.

To make sure region did not change. This check is under lock.

This is sorta fast path to bail. We recheck under partition lock above.
