Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle) 2d1e54aab6 mm: abstract reading sysctl_max_map_count, and READ_ONCE()
Concurrent reads and writes of sysctl_max_map_count are possible, so we
should READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE().

The sysctl procfs logic already enforces WRITE_ONCE(), so abstract the
read side with get_sysctl_max_map_count().

While we're here, also move the field to mm/internal.h and add the getter
there since only mm interacts with it, there's no need for anybody else to
have access.

Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.
