mm: rust: add lock_vma_under_rcu

Currently, the binder driver always uses the mmap lock to make changes to
its vma.  Because the mmap lock is global to the process, this can involve
significant contention.  However, the kernel has a feature called per-vma
locks, which can significantly reduce contention.  For example, you can
take a vma lock in parallel with an mmap write lock.  This is important
because contention on the mmap lock has been a long-term recurring
challenge for the Binder driver.

This patch introduces support for using `lock_vma_under_rcu` from Rust.
The Rust Binder driver will be able to use this to reduce contention on
the mmap lock.
