Re: commit 1c29a32ce65f4cd0f1c causes Bad rss-counter state and firefox-esr crash in linux-next-20240613

I did some experiments on the rss counter bug. The next patch is made for linux-next-20240613
with commit 1c29a32ce65f4cd0f1c0f9 reverted. Then I simply inlined the code of do_vmi_unmap()
and do_vmi_align_munmap() into mmap_region(). This version of the code works fine and does not
show the rss counter bug.

The next patch now moves the call to vms_complete_munmap_vmas() towards the end of
mmap_region(). This code is also free of the rss counter bug.

    mm: mmap: push back vms_complete_munmap_vmas()

    In order to to debug the rss counter bug we're going to push back
    vms_complete_munmap_vmas() in mmap_region.

The next patch move vms_complete_munmap_vmas() a little further beyond the
call to vma_expand(). This code contain the rss counter bug.

    mm: mmap: push back vms_complete_munmap_vmas()

    This commit actually show the rss counter bug, while the previus does
    not!

So there might be some unwanted interaction between vms_complete_munmap_vmas though
I've no yet figured out what exactly is happening. Hope this will be helpful in
solving the problem.
