mm: mempolicy: fix mbind_range() && vma_adjust() interaction

Browse Source 
vma_adjust() does vma_set_policy(vma, vma_policy(next)) and this
is doubly wrong:

1. This leaks vma->vm_policy if it is not NULL and not equal to
   next->vm_policy.

   This can happen if vma_merge() expands "area", not prev (case 8).

2. This sets the wrong policy if vma_merge() joins prev and area,
   area is the vma the caller needs to update and it still has the
   old policy.

Revert commit 1444f92c84 ("mm: merging memory blocks resets
mempolicy") which introduced these problems.

Change mbind_range() to recheck mpol_equal() after vma_merge() to fix
the problem that commit tried to address.
