mm: remove unnecessary reset state logic on merge new VMA

mm: remove unnecessary reset state logic on merge new VMA

The only place where this was used was in mmap_region(), which we have now
adjusted to not require this to be performed (we reset ourselves in
effect).

It also created a dangerous assumption that VMG state could be safely
reused after a merge, at which point it may have been mutated in
unexpected ways, leading to subtle bugs.

Note that it was discovered by Wei Yang that there was also an error in
this code - we are comparing vmg->vma with prev after setting it to NULL.

This however had no impact, as we previously reset VMA iterator state
before attempting merge again, but it was useless effort.

In any case, this patch removes all of the logic so also eliminates this
wasted effort.
