Well, it's an iterator so I though a position was implied.  But I think
the documentation is lacking on the vma_iterator interface and I should
fix that.

I think you are correct.  It's worth noting that all of these skip
splitting if merging succeeds.

We know it won't match case 1-4 (we have a current vma).  We then pass
in vma_end = min(end, vma->vm_end);

vma_lookup() will only be called if end == vma->vm_end, so next will not
be set (and found) unless it is adjacent to the current vma and the vma
in question does not need to be split anyways.

I also see that we use pgoff+pglen in the check, which avoids my concern
above.
