[PATCH v3 01/10] arm: factor out mmap ASLR into mmap_rnd

From: Kees Cook
Date: Tue Mar 03 2015 - 21:14:00 EST


In preparation for splitting out ET_DYN ASLR, this moves the ASLR calculations
for mmap on ARM into a separate routine, similar to x86. This also removes
the redundant check of personality (PF_RANDOMIZE is already set before calling
arch_pick_mmap_layout).
