Subject: [PATCH followup] mm: get rid of CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP || CONFIG_IA64

While I am in the cleanup mode. We should use VM_GROWSUP rather than
tricky CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP||CONFIG_IA64.

What do you think?

Subject: [PATCH] mm: get rid of CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP || CONFIG_IA64

IA64 needs some trickery for Register Backing Store so we have to
export expand_stack_upwards for it even though the architecture expands
its stack downwards normally. To avoid
we have defined VM_GROWSUP which is defined only for the above
configuration.

We still have places which use the original ifdefs so let's get rid of
them finally.
