(textually depends on procfs-task-exe-symlink.patch)

It is not easy to actually understand the "if (!file || !vma_merge())" code,
turn it into "if (file && vma_merge())". This makes immediately obvious that
the subsequent "if (file)" is superfluous.

As Hugh Dickins pointed out, we can also factor out the ->i_writecount
corrections, and add a small comment about that.
