Yeah, I was going to say that splitting a sealed VMA is okay (and we
allow it on mlock and madvise).

Why below the end check? I believe we can avoid the split? Is there
something I'm missing?
But I did find a bug, what I really seem to want is:

 +           if (!can_modify_vma(next)) {
instead of (vma). It's somewhat concerning how the mseal selftests
didn't trip on this?
