Donet Tom dffe24e958 hugetlbfs: ensure generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr
generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() was returning an address less than
mmap_min_addr if the mmap argument addr, after alignment, was less than
mmap_min_addr, causing mmap to fail.

This is because current generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() code does not
take into account mmap_min_addr.

This patch ensures that generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() always returns
an address that is greater than mmap_min_addr.  Additionally, similar to
generic_get_unmapped_area(), vm_end_gap() checks are included to maintain
stack gap.

How to reproduce
================

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <stdlib.h>
 #include <sys/mman.h>
 #include <unistd.h>

 #define HUGEPAGE_SIZE (16 * 1024 * 1024)

 int main() {

    void *addr = mmap((void *)-1, HUGEPAGE_SIZE,
                 PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                 MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0);
    if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
        perror("mmap");
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    snprintf((char *)addr, HUGEPAGE_SIZE, "Hello, Huge Pages!");

    printf("%s\n", (char *)addr);

    if (munmap(addr, HUGEPAGE_SIZE) == -1) {
        perror("munmap");
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    return 0;
 }

Result without fix
==================
 # cat /proc/meminfo |grep -i HugePages_Free
 HugePages_Free:       20
 # ./test
 mmap: Permission denied
 #

Result with fix
===============
 # cat /proc/meminfo |grep -i HugePages_Free
 HugePages_Free:       20
 # ./test
 Hello, Huge Pages!

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
