There is a loop in do_mlockall() that lacks a preemption point, which
means that the following can happen on non-preemptible builds of the
kernel:

> My fuzz tester keeps hitting this. Every instance shows the non-irq stack
> came in from mlockall.  I'm only seeing this on one box, but that has more
> ram (8gb) than my other machines, which might explain it.
