Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] Refactor of vma_merge and new merge call

I am currently working on my master's thesis trying to increase
number of merges of VMAs currently failing because of page offset
incompatibility and difference in their anon_vmas. The following
refactor and added merge call included in this series is just two
smaller upgrades I created along the way.

The rest of the work is still being worked on but was send to mailing
list as a RFC:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220516125405.1675-1-matenajakub@gmail.com/

This patch series is based on mm-unstable branch (specifically commit
1bdf44dbc966e31c635199d413ee064a7d320844). This is fourth version,
I added a mremap expand merge test, added a comment and new variables to
the merge call and based the series on the mm-unstable kernel branch.

Jakub Matěna (2):
  mm: refactor of vma_merge()
  mm: add merging after mremap resize
