Both the VM / exec queue file lock protect the lookup and reference to
the object, nothing more. These locks are not intended anything else
underneath them. XA have their own locking too, so no need to take the
VM / exec queue file lock aside from when doing a lookup and reference
get.
Add some kernel doc to make this clear and cleanup a few typos too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
