mm/oom_kill: allow process_mrelease to run under mmap_lock protection

With exit_mmap holding mmap_write_lock during free_pgtables call,
process_mrelease does not need to elevate mm->mm_users in order to
prevent exit_mmap from destrying pagetables while __oom_reap_task_mm is
walking the VMA tree.  The change prevents process_mrelease from calling
the last mmput, which can lead to waiting for IO completion in exit_aio.
