Subject: [PATCH 1/1] TRIVIAL: mmap.c: fix comment for __insert_vm_struct()

The comment above __insert_vm_struct seems to suggest that this
function is also going to link the VMA with the anon_vma, but
this is not true.
This function only links the VMA to the mm->mm_rb tree and the mm->mmap linked
list.
