Subject: [PATCH v14 45/70] ipc/shm: use VMA iterator instead of linked list

From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@...cle.com>

The VMA iterator is faster than the linked llist, and it can be walked
even when VMAs are being removed from the address space, so there's no
need to keep track of 'next'.
