Subject: [PATCH 2/5] mm/mremap: it is sure to have enough space when extent meets requirement

old_end is passed to these two function to check whether there is enough
space to do the move, while this check is done before invoking these
functions.

These two functions only would be invoked when extent meets the
requirement and there is one check before invoking these functions:

    if (extent > old_end - old_addr)
        extent = old_end - old_addr;

This implies (old_end - old_addr) won't fail the check in these two
functions.
