That's wrong. You got it right in arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() ...

This is lame, really.

Instead of duplicating that horrible formatted condition and adding this
lousy comment why can't you just put all of it (including the TASK_SIZE
check) into a proper validation function and put the comment there?
The fixed up variant of your patch below does that.
Aside of that please spend a bit more time on describing things precisely
at the technical and factual level next time. I fixed that up (once more)
both in the comment and the changelog.
Please double check.
Thanks,

Subject: x86/mm: Prevent non-MAP_FIXED mapping across DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW border

In case of 5-level paging, the kernel does not place any mapping above
47-bit, unless userspace explicitly asks for it.
Userspace can request an allocation from the full address space by
specifying the mmap address hint above 47-bit.
Nicholas noticed that the current implementation violates this interface:
If user space requests a mapping at the end of the 47-bit address space
with a length which causes the mapping to cross the 47-bit border
(DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW), then the vma is partially in the address space
below and above.
Sanity check the mmap address hint so that start and end of the resulting
vma are on the same side of the 47-bit border. If that's not the case fall
back to the code path which ignores the address hint and allocate from the
regular address space below 47-bit.
[ tglx: Moved the address check to a function and massaged comment and
changelog ]
