    Subject[RFC PATCH RESEND 01/28] mm: introduce CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK
    From
    This configuration variable will be used to build the support for VMA
    locking during page fault handling.

    This is enabled by default on supported architectures with SMP and MMU
    set.

    The architecture support is needed since the page fault handler is called
    from the architecture's page faulting code which needs modifications to
    handle faults under VMA lock.
