mm/rmap: remove anon_vma_merge() function
This function is confusing, we already have the concept of anon_vma merge to adjacent VMA's anon_vma's to increase probability of anon_vma compatibility and therefore VMA merge (see is_mergeable_anon_vma() etc.), as well as anon_vma reuse, along side the usual VMA merge logic. We can remove the anon_vma check as it is redundant - a merge would not have been permitted with removal if the anon_vma's were not the same (and in the case of an unfaulted/faulted merge, we would have already set the unfaulted VMA's anon_vma to vp->remove->anon_vma in dup_anon_vma()). Avoid overloading this term when we're very simply unlinking anon_vma state from a removed VMA upon merge.
