Introduces three new helper functions:

They will be used by do_munmap() and the new do_munmap with zapping
large mapping early in the later patch.
There is no functional change, just code refactor.

munmap_check_addr? Btw. why does this need to have munmap prefix at all?
This is a general address space check.
Just because I extracted this from do_munmap, no special consideration.
It is definitely ok to use another name.

This really doesn't help me to understand how to use the function.
Why do we need both prev and vma etc...

This is a really weird calling convention. So what does 0 tell? /me
checks the code. Ohh, it is nothing to do. Why cannot you simply return
the vma. NULL implies nothing to do, ERR_PTR on error.
A couple of reasons why it is implemented as so:
* do_munmap returns 0 for both success and no suitable vma
* Since prev is needed by finding the start vma, and prev will be
used by unmap_region later too, so I just thought it would look clean to
have one function to return both start vma and prev. In this way, we can
share as much as possible common code.
* In this way, we just need return 0, 1 or error no just as same as
what do_munmap does currently. Then we know what is failure case exactly
to just bail out right away.
Actually, I tried the same approach as you suggested, but it had two
problems:
* If it returns the start vma, we have to re-find its prev later,
but the prev has been found during finding start vma. And, duplicate the
code in do_munmap_zap_rlock. It sounds not that ideal.
* If it returns prev, it might be null (start vma is the first
vma). We can't tell if null is a failure or success case

Why do you set prev here. We might "fail" with 0 right after this
No special reason, just copied from do_munmap. Yes, it is ideal to have
prev set here. It can be moved further down.

the patch would be much more easier to read if you didn't do vma->tmp
renaming.
Yes, I should used another name for the "vma" argument.
Thanks,
