[PATCH 2/2] mm/mmap: Add inline munmap_vma_range() for code readability

[Liam R. Howlett]

There are two locations that have a block of code for munmapping a vma
range.  Change those two locations to use a function and add meaningful
comments about what happens to the arguments, which was unclear in the
previous code.
