The behaviour of try_to_unmap_one() is difficult to follow because it performs different operations based on a fairly large set of flags used in different combinations.
TTU_MUNLOCK is one such flag. However it is exclusively used by try_to_munlock() which specifies no other flags. Therefore rather than overload try_to_unmap_one() with unrelated behaviour split this out into it's own function and remove the flag.
