The proper fix would be to use the mmap locking apis defined in
include/linux/mmap_lock.h instead.

However I would like more information about your report. Did you apply
the series yourself ? If so, what base tree did you apply it onto ? If
not, what tree did you use that already included the series ?

Thanks,
