commit 9d8cebd4bcd7c3878462fdfda34bbcdeb4df7ef4 didn't real fix the
mbind vma merge problem due to wrong pgoff value passing to vma_merge(),
which made vma_merge() always return NULL.
Re-tested the patched kernel with the reproducer provided in commit
9d8cebd, got correct result like below:
addr = 0x7ffa5aaa2000
[snip]
7ffa5aaa2000-7ffa5aaa6000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
7fffd556f000-7fffd5584000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
