mm/mmu_notifier: silence PROVE_RCU_LIST warnings
It is safe to traverse mm->notifier_subscriptions->list either under
SRCU read lock or mm->notifier_subscriptions->lock using
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(). Silence the PROVE_RCU_LIST false positives,
for example,
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
-----------------------------
mm/mmu_notifier.c:484 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
