mm/mmap/vma_merge: use the proper vma pointers in cases 1 and 6
Case 1 is now shown in the comment as next vma being merged with prev, so
use 'next' instead of 'mid'. In case 1 they both point to the same vma.
As a consequence, in case 6, the dup_anon_vma() is now tried first on
'next' and then on 'mid', before it was the opposite order. This is not a
functional change, as those two vma's cannnot have a different anon_vma,
as that would have prevented the merging in the first place.
