Once we make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, it will be possible for a vma to be reused and attached to another mm after lock_vma_under_rcu() locks the vma. lock_vma_under_rcu() should ensure that vma_start_read() is using the original mm and after locking the vma it should ensure that vma->vm_mm has not changed from under us.
