This patchset fix the misuse of parenet anon_vma, which mainly caused by child vma's vm_next and vm_prev are left same as its parent after duplicate vma. Finally, code reached parent vma's neighbor by referring pointer of child vma and executed wrong logic. The first two patches fix relevant issues, and the third patch sets vm_next and vm_prev to NULL when duplicate vma to prevent potential misuse in future.
