Subject: [PATCH] mm/mmap: Preallocate maple nodes for brk vma expansion

If the brk VMA is the last vma in a maple node and meets the rare
criteria that it can be expanded, then preallocation is necessary to
avoid a potential fs_reclaim circular lock issue on low resources.

At the same time use the actual vma start address (unaligned) when
calling vma_adjust_trans_huge().

Fixes: 2e7ce7d354f2 (mm/mmap: change do_brk_flags() to expand existing VMA and add do_brk_munmap())
