Subject: [PATCH v4] hugetlbfs: Get unmapped area below TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE for hugetlbfs

Here is a final patch to solve that hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() can't
get unmapped area below mmap base for huge pages based on a few previous
discussions and patches from me.

I'm so sorry. When sending v2 and v3 patches, I forget to cc:
linux-mm@...ck.org and linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org. No records of these
two patches found on the https://lkml.org/lkml/.

Patch V1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/27/440

Changes in V2:
* Follow Mike's suggestions, move hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() routines
from "fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c" to "arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c", without
changing core code.
* Add mmap_is_legacy() function, and only fall back to the bottom-up
function on no-legacy mode.

Changes in V3:
* Add *bottomup() and *topdown() two function, and check if
mm->get_unmapped_area is equal to arch_get_unmapped_area() instead of
checking mmap_is_legacy() to determine which function should be used.

Changes in V4:
* Follow the suggestions of Will and Mike, move back this patch to core
code.

------

In a 32-bit program, running on arm64 architecture. When the address
space below mmap base is completely exhausted, shmat() for huge pages
will return ENOMEM, but shmat() for normal pages can still success on
no-legacy mode. This seems not fair.

For normal pages, get_unmapped_area() calling flows are:
    => mm->get_unmapped_area()
	if on legacy mode,
	    => arch_get_unmapped_area()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()
	if on no-legacy mode,
	    => arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()

For huge pages, get_unmapped_area() calling flows are:
    => file->f_op->get_unmapped_area()
		=> hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()

To solve this issue, we only need to make hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() take
the same way as mm->get_unmapped_area(). Add *bottomup() and *topdown()
two functions, and check current mm->get_unmapped_area() to decide which 
one to use. If mm->get_unmapped_area is equal to arch_get_unmapped_area(),
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() calls bottomup routine, otherwise calls topdown
routine.
