mm: introduce commit_merge(), abstracting final commit of merge
Pull the part of vma_expand() which actually commits the merge operation, that is inserts it into the maple tree and sets the VMA's vma->vm_start and vma->vm_end parameters, into its own function. We implement only the parts needed for vma_expand() which now as a result of previous work is also the means by which new VMA ranges are merged. The next commit in the series will implement merging of existing ranges which will extend commit_merge() to accommodate this case and result in all merges using this common code.
