brk() in v6.1-rc1 can expand file mappings, seemingly without taking file locks

[Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>]

As of commit ca57f02295f, brk() can expand ordinary file mappings (but
not file mappings with weird flags), and I think it does it with
insufficient locks. I think brk() probably needs some extra checks to
make sure it's operating on a brk-like VMA (which means it should at
least be anonymous, and perhaps pass the full can_vma_merge_after()
check so that we're not creating unnecessary special cases?).

The codepaths that are intended to expand file VMAs do stuff like
i_mmap_lock_write() and vma_interval_tree_remove(), which
do_brk_flags() doesn't seem to do (because it was never intended to
operate on file VMAs?).
