[Edward Adam Davis]

A deadlock [1] occurs in mfill_get_vma() because the locks mmap_lock
and map_changing_lock are not released; the failure to release them
properly stems from the assignment of the vma variable occurring at
an inappropriate stage.

Moving the vma assignment operation within mfill_get_vma() to after
the vma has been got.

[1]
