Subject: [v4.17-rc5][bisected] be83bbf80682 breaks /proc/vmcore mmap

Greetings,

be83bbf80682 "mmap: introduce sane default mmap limits" introduced a
problem with mapping /proc/vmcore if it is bigger than 2gb. This
breaks s390 kernel zfcpdump. But it should be a general problem.

Please consider the following one-liner fix, if it makes sense.

  procfs: fix mmap() for /proc/vmcore
