do_mmap() will unlock the necessary VMAs.  There is also a bug in the
loop which will evaluate as false and not unlock any VMAs anyways.

I think you need to keep ^^^ that line because the vma needs to stay
mlocked.

Yes.  I missed that this is transferred through by calc_vm_flag_bits()
in do_mmap().  I will revise the patch.

Thanks,
