correct_wcount and inode in mmap_region() just complicate the code. This boolean was needed previously, when deny_write_access() was called before vma_merge(), now we can simply check VM_DENYWRITE and do allow_write_access() if it is set.
allow_write_access() checks file != NULL, so this is safe even if it was possible to use VM_DENYWRITE && !file. Just we need to ensure we use the same file which was deny_write_access()'ed, so the patch also moves "file = vma->vm_file" down after allow_write_access().
