So, it might be not safe enough to deal with these kind of special
mappings with read mmap_sem. Deal with such mappings with regular
do_munmap() call.

Michal suggested to make this as a separate patch for safer and more
bisectable sake.
Hm I believe Michal meant the opposite "evolution" though. Patch 2/4
should be done in a way that special mappings keep using the regular
path, and this patch would convert them to the new path. Possibly even
each special case separately.

Aha, thanks. I understood it oppositely.
