Ok, applied.

And then I committed an extra patch that removed the really obvious
cases of find_vma_prev() (ie where it immediately returns if the
resulting "vma" is NULL.

There may well be a few more cases that really only need find_vma(),
but if it wasn't totally obvious from the grep output with just a
couple of lines of context, I left it alone for now.
