[RFC PATCH 1/5] mm/mmap: Correctly position vma_iterator in __split_vma()

[Liam R. Howlett]

The vma iterator may be left pointing to the newly created vma.  This
happens when inserting the new vma at the end of the old vma
(!new_below).

The incorrect position in the vma iterator is not exposed currently
since the vma iterator is repositioned in the munmap path and is not
reused in any of the other paths.

This has limited impact in the current code, but is required for future
changes.

Fixes: b2b3b886738f ("mm: don't use __vma_adjust() in __split_vma()")
