[PATCH] mm/hugetlb: i_mmap_lock_write before unmapping in remove_inode_hugepages

[Mike Kravetz]

Code was added to remove_inode_hugepages that will unmap a page if
it is mapped.  i_mmap_lock_write() must be taken during the call
to hugetlb_vmdelete_list().  This is to prevent mappings(vmas) from
being added or deleted while the list of vmas is being examined.
