If the brk VMA is the last vma in a maple node and meets the rare criteria that it can be expanded, then preallocation is necessary to avoid a potential fs_reclaim circular lock issue on low resources. At the same time use the actual vma start address (unaligned) when calling vma_adjust_trans_huge().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
