mm: correctly reference merged VMA
On second merge attempt on mmap() we incorrectly discard the possibly merged VMA, resulting in a possible use-after-free (and most certainly a reference to the wrong VMA) in this instance in the subsequent __mmap_complete() invocation. Correct this mistake by reassigning vma correctly if a merge succeeds in this case.
