Subject: [PATCH v2 00/22] mm: Add vma_lookup()

Many places in the kernel use find_vma() to get a vma and then check the
start address of the vma to ensure the next vma was not returned.

Other places use the find_vma_intersection() call with add, addr + 1 as
the range; looking for just the vma at a specific address.

The third use of find_vma() is by developers who do not know that the
function starts searching at the provided address upwards for the next
vma.  This results in a bug that is often overlooked for a long time.

Adding the new vma_lookup() function will allow for cleaner code by
removing the find_vma() calls which check limits, making
find_vma_intersection() calls of a single address to be shorter, and
potentially reduce the incorrect uses of find_vma().

v2:
 - Changed find_vma_intersection() comments and whitespace to be
   compliant.  Thanks Davidlohr Bueso
 - Moved vma_lookup() call in vma_to_resize() to be separate from the
   declaration as requested by Davidlohr Bueso
 - Added Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@...ux-m68k.org> for 08/22

This patch set was originally part of the maple tree patch set.
Changes since being broken out on its own:
- Changed initial implementation of vma_lookup() to use find_vma() as requested
  by Michel Lespinasse.
- Updated commit comments to be more descriptive

These patches are based on next-20210506
