mm: fix vm_brk_flags() to not bail out while holding lock
Calling vm_brk_flags() with flags set other than VM_EXEC will exit the function without releasing the mmap_write_lock. Just do the sanity check before the lock is acquired. This doesn't fix an actual issue since no caller sets a flag other than VM_EXEC.
