Use find_vma_intersection() and vma_lookup() to both simplify the logic and
to fold the end == next->vm_start condition into one block.
This groups all of the simple range checks together and establishes the
invariant that, if prev, curr or next are non-NULL then their positions are
as expected.
This has no functional impact.

Can this be compacted to less lines? Pretty much the same thing

I'm not so sure...

AFAICS if the next vma is not adjacent to CCCC or ****, but there's a gap,
this will still give you a non-NULL result?

And then without this end == next->vm_start check, merge will be done
despite the gap.

Disregard that, vma_lookup() is not find_vma(). Next cleanup challenge: more
obvious naming of those two.
