Subject: mm: disable CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK by default until its fixed
Date: Mon, 3 Jul 2023 11:21:50 -0700

A memory corruption was reported in [1] with bisection pointing to the
patch [2] enabling per-VMA locks for x86.
Disable per-VMA locks config to prevent this issue while the problem is
being investigated. This is expected to be a temporary measure.
