I have a hard time understanding what scenario you describe. There is no
'TASK_SIZE_TASK', only TASK_SIZE, TASK_SIZE_OF and TASK_SIZE_MAX.

The code in mmap.c checks for the per-task limit, 31-bit vs 64-bit.
pgalloc.c checks for the maximum allowed address and does not care
about the task.

I don't think this patch fixes anything.
