[PATCH v5 07/10] mmap locking API: add mmap_read_trylock_non_owner()

[Michel Lespinasse]

Add a couple APIs used by kernel/bpf/stackmap.c only:
- mmap_read_trylock_non_owner()
- mmap_read_unlock_non_owner() (may be called from a work queue).

It's still not ideal that bpf/stackmap subverts the lock ownership
in this way. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting this API as the
least-ugly way of addressing this in the short term.
