And afaics arch/tile/mm/elf.c can use do_mmap(MAP_FIXED ...) rather than
mmap_region(), it can be changed by a separate patch. In this case we can
unexport mmap_region().

The problem is that we are mapping a region of virtual address space that
the chip provides for setting up interrupt handlers (at 0xfc000000) but that
is above the TASK_SIZE cutoff, so do_mmap() would fail the call in
get_unmapped_area().
