[PATCH] mm/mprotect: Fix successful vma_merge() of next in do_mprotect_pkey()

If mprotect_fixup() successfully calls vma_merge() and replaces vma and
the next vma, then the tmp variable in the do_mprotect_pkey() is not
updated to point to the new vma end. This results in the loop detecting
a gap between VMAs that does not exist. Fix the faulty value of tmp by
setting it to the end location of the vma iterator at the end of the
loop.
