mm: make find_extend_vma() fail if write lock not held
commit f440fa1ac955e2898893f9301568435eb5cdfc4b upstream.
Make calls to extend_vma() and find_extend_vma() fail if the write lock
is required.
To avoid making this a flag-day event, this still allows the old
read-locking case for the trivial situations, and passes in a flag to
say "is it write-locked". That way write-lockers can say "yes, I'm
being careful", and legacy users will continue to work in all the common
cases until they have been fully converted to the new world order.
