The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() does not lock the pages other than its check_page parameter (which is already locked). The BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() is not documented and its purpose is somewhat unclear, but apparently it serializes against page migration, which could otherwise fail to transfer the PG_mlocked flag. This would not be fatal, as the page would be eventually encountered again, but NR_MLOCK accounting would become distorted nevertheless. This patch adds a comment to the BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page() to that effect. The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() is fixed so that for page != check_page, trylock_page() is attempted (to avoid possible deadlocks as we already have check_page locked) and mlock_vma_page() is performed only upon success. If the page lock cannot be obtained, the page is left without PG_mlocked, which is again not a problem in the whole unevictable memory design.
