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.
