Subject[PATCH RESEND 0/8] Fix mmap base in bottom-up mmap
Date
(Sorry for the previous interrupted series) 

This series fixes the fallback of the top-down mmap: in case of
failure, a bottom-up scheme can be tried as a last resort between
the top-down mmap base and the stack, hoping for a large unused stack
limit.

Lots of architectures and even mm code start this fallback
at TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE, which is useless since the top-down scheme
already failed on the whole address space: instead, simply use
mmap_base.

Along the way, it allows to get rid of of mmap_legacy_base and
mmap_compat_legacy_base from mm_struct.

Note that arm and mips already implement this behaviour.

Alexandre Ghiti (8):
s390: Start fallback of top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base
sh: Start fallback of top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base
sparc: Start fallback of top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base
x86, hugetlbpage: Start fallback of top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base
mm: Start fallback top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base
parisc: Use mmap_base, not mmap_legacy_base, as low_limit for
bottom-up mmap
x86: Use mmap_*base, not mmap_*legacy_base, as low_limit for bottom-up
mmap
mm: Remove mmap_legacy_base and mmap_compat_legacy_code fields from
mm_struct
