[PATCH 4/4] mm, notifier: Add a lockdep map for invalidate_range_start

This is a similar idea to the fs_reclaim fake lockdep lock. It's fairly easy to provoke a specific notifier to be run on a specific range: Just prep it, and then munmap() it. A bit harder, but still doable, is to provoke the mmu notifiers for all the various callchains that might lead to them.
