mm: fix page_lock_anon_vma leaving mutex locked

On one machine I've been getting hangs, a page fault's anon_vma_prepare()
waiting in anon_vma_lock(), other processes waiting for that page's lock.

This is a replay of last year's f18194275c "mm: fix hang on
anon_vma->root->lock".

The new page_lock_anon_vma() places too much faith in its refcount: when
it has acquired the mutex_trylock(), it's possible that a racing task in
anon_vma_alloc() has just reallocated the struct anon_vma, set refcount
to 1, and is about to reset its anon_vma->root.

Fix this by saving anon_vma->root, and relying on the usual page_mapped()
check instead of a refcount check: if page is still mapped, the anon_vma
is still ours; if page is not still mapped, we're no longer interested.
