[PATCH RESEND 7/8] x86: Use mmap_*base, not mmap_*legacy_base, as low_limit for bottom-up mmap

From: Alexandre Ghiti
Date: Thu Jun 20 2019 - 01:17:38 EST


Bottom-up mmap scheme is used twice:

- for legacy mode, in which mmap_legacy_base and mmap_compat_legacy_base
are respectively equal to mmap_base and mmap_compat_base.

- in case of mmap failure in top-down mode, where there is no need to go
through the whole address space again for the bottom-up fallback: the goal
of this fallback is to find, as a last resort, space between the top-down
mmap base and the stack, which is the only place not covered by the
top-down mmap.

Then this commit removes the usage of mmap_legacy_base and
mmap_compat_legacy_base fields from x86 code.
