As part of the new large address space support, processes start out life with a
128TB virtual address space. However when calling mmap() a process can pass a
hint address, and if that hint is > 128TB the kernel will use the full 512TB
address space to try and satisfy the mmap() request.
Currently we have a check that the hint is > 128TB and < 512TB (TASK_SIZE),
which was added as an optimisation to avoid updating addr_limit unnecessarily
and also to avoid calling slice_flush_segments() on all CPUs more than
necessary.
However this has the user-visible side effect that an mmap() hint above 512TB
does not search the full address space unless a preceding mmap() used a hint
value > 128TB && < 512TB.
So fix it to treat any hint above 128TB as a hint to search the full address
space, instead of checking the hint against TASK_SIZE, we instead check if the
addr_limit is already == TASK_SIZE.
This also brings the ABI in-line with what is proposed on x86. ie, that a hint
address above 128TB up to and including (2^64)-1 is an indication to search the
full address space.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
