From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

As clang builds point out, the variable 'next' is now uninitialized
in some conditions as a result of a previous patch that tried to
rely on it being NULL here:

mm/mmap.c:939:11: error: variable 'next' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        else if (!curr)
                 ^~~~~
mm/mmap.c:952:15: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        merge_next = next && mpol_equal(policy, vma_policy(next)) &&
                     ^~~~
