syzbot is reporting that mmput() from shrinker function has a risk of
deadlock [1], for delayed_uprobe_add() from update_ref_ctr() calls
kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL) with delayed_uprobe_lock held, and
uprobe_clear_state() from __mmput() also holds delayed_uprobe_lock.
Commit a1b2289cef ("android: binder: drop lru lock in isolate
callback") replaced mmput() with mmput_async() in order to avoid sleeping
with spinlock held. But this patch replaces mmput() with mmput_async() in
order not to start __mmput() from shrinker context.
