Just in case you didn't notice, this patch was reviewed on another list.
Thanks,

> When deleting a vma entry from a maple tree, it has to pass NULL to
> vma_iter_prealloc() in order to calculate internal state of the tree,
> but it passed a wrong argument. As a result, nommu kernels crashed upon
> accessing a vma iterator, such as acct_collect() reading the size of
> vma entries after do_munmap().
>
> This commit fixes this issue by passing a right argument to the
> preallocation call.
