Sample crash report:
=====================================
WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
6.16.0-rc2-next-20250616-syzkaller #0 Not tainted
-------------------------------------
syz.9.959/9941 is trying to release lock (&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem) at:
[<ffffffff821011d1>] i_mmap_unlock_write include/linux/fs.h:557 [inline]
[<ffffffff821011d1>] maybe_drop_rmap_locks mm/mremap.c:197 [inline]
[<ffffffff821011d1>] move_pgt_entry mm/mremap.c:686 [inline]
[<ffffffff821011d1>] move_page_tables+0xf51/0x2940 mm/mremap.c:1358
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
