Simplify. The condition on line 1223 is always true.
Here's why:

The condition

 if (VG_(brk_limit) > VG_(brk_base))   line 1223

is reachable iff 

  newbrk < VG_(brk_base)  on line 1201  is false  AND
  newbrk < VG_(brk_limit) on line 1205  is true

Rewrite as

  newbrk >= VG_(brk_base)    is true  AND
  newbrk <  VG_(brk_limit)   is true

Rewrite as

  newbrk >= VG_(brk_base)        is true  AND
  newbrk <= VG_(brk_limit) - 1   is true

Combine

  VG_(brk_base) <= newbrk <= VG_(brk_limit) - 1

Therefore

  VG_(brk_base) <= VG_(brk_limit) - 1

Or

  VG_(brk_base) < VG_(brk_limit)

Which is the same as

  VG_(brk_limit) > VG_(brk_base)

qed.
