I see you did not rename anon_vma_lock and anon_vma_unlock to
anon_vma_lock_write and anon_vma_unlock_write.

That could get confusing to people touching that code in the
future.
Agreed, doing that rename makes perfect sense - I've done that
in the v2 version attached below.

Note that you haven't changed the names for vma_lock_anon_vma() and
vma_unlock_anon_vma().
I don't have any real good names to suggest though.

And as Rik noticed, you forgot to rename anon_vma_unlock() too.

But really, this is nitpicking. I like the idea behind the patch, and
after giving it a close look, I couldn't find anything wrong with it.
