If you introduce helpers like:

static inline struct vm_area_struct *vma_of(struct rb_node *node)
{
return container_of(node, struct vm_area_struct, vm_rb);
}

static inline unsigned long max_gap_of(struct rb_node *node)
{
return vma_of(node)->free_gap;
}

static unsigned long gap_of(struct rb_node *node)
{
struct vm_area_struct *vma = vma_of(node);

if (!vma->vm_prev)
return vma->vm_start;

return vma->vm_start - vma->vm_prev->vm_end;
}

You can write your largest free gap as:

unsigned long largest_gap(struct rb_node *node)
{
unsigned long gap = gap_of(node);

if (node->rb_left)
gap = max(gap, max_gap_of(node->rb_left));
if (node->rb_right)
gap = max(gap, max_gap_of(node->rb_right));

return gap;
}

And as shown, you can re-used those {max_,}gap_of() function in the
lookup function in the next patch.
