Fabian has reported another regression in 6.1 due toca3d76b0aa("mm: add merging after mremap resize"). The problem is that vma_merge() can fail when vma has a vm_ops->close() method, causing is_mergeable_vma() test to be negative. This was happening for vma mapping a file from fuse-overlayfs, which does have the method. But when we are simply expanding the vma, we never remove it due to the "merge" with the added area, so the test should not prevent the expansion. As a quick fix, check for such vmas and expand them using vma_adjust() directly as was done before commitca3d76b0aa. For a more robust long term solution we should try to limit the check for vma_ops->close only to cases that actually result in vma removal, so that no merge would be prevented unnecessarily.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
