[PATCH 4/8] x86, hugetlbpage: Start fallback of top-down mmap at mm->mmap_base

From: Alexandre Ghiti
Date: Wed Jun 19 2019 - 01:19:07 EST


In case of mmap failure in top-down mode, 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.
