When doing the whole make i_mmap_lock/anon_vma->lock a mutex thing last
week I ran into the same issue and its on my todo list to find out wth
is happening there.
So yes I think we should move that validation check inside
page_lock_anon_vma().
I'll cook up a patch once I'm done staring at the various funny arch
mmu_gather implementations.
