Do we want to fold may_expand_anon_vm() into may_expand_vm() (potentially
passing it the flags/struct file if needed) so there is just one such
helper function?  Rationale being that it then gets hard to see what
restricts what, and it's easy to miss one place.

For example, I couldn't find anything preventing a user to
mmap(MAP_GROWSDOWN) and uses that as a base to get pages that would not be
accounted for in your patch (making it a poor-man mremap()).

I only had a quick look so apologies if this is handled and I missed it :)
