mm/mmap.c: expand_downwards: don't require the gap if !vm_prev
expand_stack(vma) fails if address < stack_guard_gap even if there is no vma->vm_prev. I don't think this makes sense, and we didn't do this before the recent commit 1be7107fbe18 ("mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas"). We do not need a gap in this case, any address is fine as long as security_mmap_addr() doesn't object. This also simplifies the code, we know that address >= prev->vm_end and thus underflow is not possible.
