From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellst...@vmware.com>

The caller needs to make sure that the vma is not torn down during the
lock operation and can also use the i_mmap_rwsem for file-backed vmas.
Remove the BUG_ON. We could, as an alternative, add a test that either
vma->vm_mm->mmap_sem or vma->vm_file->f_mapping->i_mmap_rwsem are held.
