mm/mmap: move vma operations to mm_struct out of the critical section of file mapping lock
UnixBench/Execl represents a class of workload where bash scripts are spawned frequently to do some short jobs. When running multiple parallel tasks, hot osq_lock is observed from do_mmap and exit_mmap. Both of them come from load_elf_binary through the call chain "execl->do_execveat_common->bprm_execve->load_elf_binary". In do_mmap,it will call mmap_region to create vma node, initialize it and insert it to vma maintain structure in mm_struct and i_mmap tree of the mapping file, then increase map_count to record the number of vma nodes used. The hot osq_lock is to protect operations on file's i_mmap tree. For the mm_struct member change like vma insertion and map_count update, they do not affect i_mmap tree. Move those operations out of the lock's critical section, to reduce hold time on the lock. With this change, on Intel Sapphire Rapids 112C/224T platform, based on v6.0-rc6, the 160 parallel score improves by 12%. The patch has no obvious performance gain on v6.5-rc1 due to regression of this benchmark from this commit f1a7941243c102a44e8847e3b94ff4ff3ec56f25 (mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter).
