From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 297c5eee37 (mm: make the vma list be doubly linked) added vm_prev member into vm_area_struct. Therefore we can simplify find_vma_prev() by using it. Also, this change help to improve page fault performance because it has strong locality of reference.
