mm: introduce vma_merge_struct and abstract vma_merge(),vma_modify()
Rather than passing around huge numbers of parameters to numerous helper
functions, abstract them into a single struct that we thread through the
operation, the vma_merge_struct ('vmg').
Adjust vma_merge() and vma_modify() to accept this parameter, as well as
predicate functions can_vma_merge_before(), can_vma_merge_after(), and the
vma_modify_...() helper functions.
Also introduce VMG_STATE() and VMG_VMA_STATE() helper macros to allow for
easy vmg declaration.
We additionally remove the requirement that vma_merge() is passed a VMA
object representing the candidate new VMA. Previously it used this to
obtain the mm_struct, file and anon_vma properties of the proposed range
(a rather confusing state of affairs), which are now provided by the vmg
directly.
We also remove the pgoff calculation previously performed vma_modify(),
and instead calculate this in VMG_VMA_STATE() via the vma_pgoff_offset()
helper.
