Hugh Dickins 5dbe0af47f mm: fix kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1017! ...

I've hit the "address >= vma->vm_end" check in do_page_add_anon_rmap()
just once.  The stack showed khugepaged allocation trying to compact
pages: the call to page_add_anon_rmap() coming from remove_migration_pte().

That path holds anon_vma lock, but does not hold mmap_sem: it can
therefore race with a split_vma(), and in commit 5f70b962ccc2 "mmap:
avoid unnecessary anon_vma lock" we just took away the anon_vma lock
protection when adjusting vma->vm_end.

I don't think that particular BUG_ON ever caught anything interesting,
so better replace it by a comment, than reinstate the anon_vma locking.
