Just add mmap_assert_write_locked() -- some of these places can be called
with the rwsem held for either read or write; it doesn't matter which.
Others need it held for write.  There aren't any places (that I'm aware
of) that need to assert that it's held for read, and not held for write.

It seems like a better way to remove users of the term 'mmap_sem' than
just converting them to use the new 'mmap_lock'.
