mm: use the light version __mod_zone_page_state in mlocked_vma_newpage()
mlocked_vma_newpage() is called with pte lock held(a spinlock), which implies preemtion disabled, and the vm stat counter is not modified from interrupt context, so we need not use an irq-safe mod_zone_page_state() here, using a light-weight version __mod_zone_page_state() would be OK. This patch also documents __mod_zone_page_state() and some of its callsites. The comment above __mod_zone_page_state() is from Hugh Dickins, and acked by Christoph. Most credits to Hugh and Christoph for the clarification on the usage of the __mod_zone_page_state().
