Subject: mm/mmap/vma_merge: init cleanup, be explicit about the non-mergeable case
Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2023 20:19:00 +0000

Rather than setting err = -1 and only resetting if we hit merge cases,
explicitly check the non-mergeable case to make it abundantly clear that
we only proceed with the rest if something is mergeable, default err to 0
and only update if an error might occur.

Move the merge_prev, merge_next cases closer to the logic determining
curr, next and reorder initial variables so they are more logically
grouped.

This has no functional impact.
