Hi,
the following patch is just a cleanup for better readability without any
functional changes. What do you think about it?

Subject: [PATCH] mm: make expand_downwards symmetrical to expand_upwards

Currently we have expand_upwards exported while expand_downwards is
accessible only via expand_stack.

check_stack_guard_page is a nice example of the asymmetry. It uses
expand_stack for VM_GROWSDOWN while expand_upwards is called for
VM_GROWSUP case. Let's make this consistent and export expand_downwards
same way we do with expand_upwards.
