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@infradead.org> Signed-off-by:
