mm/vma: update vma_shrink() to not pass start, pgoff parameters
vma_shrink() is only used by relocate_vma_down() to shrink the tail of a VMA. Therefore neither the start nor the pgoff parameters make any sense. It seemed we were passing the pgoff parameter solely to satisfy vma_set_range()'s requirement for pgoff being specified. Since vma_set_range() is now isolated to vma.c, we can simply introduce __vma_set_range() which sets only vma->vm_[start, end], and invoke this instead, removing start and pgoff from vma_shrink() altogether. No functional change intended.
