<title>mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm-&gt;reserved_vm counter</title>

A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:

 | effect                 | alternative flags
-+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
2| skip in core dump      | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
4| do not mlock           | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP

This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.  Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.

Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

With the exception of the detached field, sg_mutex no longer adds any
locking.  detached handling has been broken before and is still broken
and this patch does not seem to make things worse than they were to
begin with.

However, I have observed cases of tasks being blocked for &gt;200s waiting
for sg_mutex.  So the removal clearly adds value for very little cost.

Changes since v1: set_exclude now returns the new value, which gets
rid of the comma expression and the operator precedence bug.  Thanks
to Douglas for spotting it.

sdp-&gt;exclude was previously protected by the BKL.  The sg_mutex, which
replaced the BKL, only semi-protected it, as it was missing from
sg_release() and sg_proc_seq_show_debug().  Take an explicit spinlock
for it.

srp-&gt;done is protected by sfp-&gt;rq_list_lock everywhere, except for this
one case.  Result can be that the wake-up happens before the cacheline
with the changed srp-&gt;done has arrived, so the waiter can go back to
sleep and never be woken up again.

The wait_event_interruptible() means that anyone trying to debug this
unlikely race will likely notice everything working fine again, as the
next signal will unwedge things.  Evil.

After sg_release() has been called, noone should be able to actually use
that filedescriptor anymore.  So if closed ever made a difference in the
past five years or so, it would have meant a bug.  Remove it.

Afaics the use of __wait_event_interruptible() as opposed to
wait_event_interruptible() is purely historic.  So let's follow the rest
of the kernel and check the condition before prepare_to_wait() - and
also make the code a bit nicer.
