According to the latest POSIX standard defined in IEEE Std 1003.1-2017,
the errno should be set to ENOMEM instead of EINVAL when mmap into
high region address which exceeds the address boundary of a process.
The corresponding description of IEEE Std 1003.1-2017 is as follows:
ERRORS
The mmap() function shall fail if:
......
[ENOMEM]
MAP_FIXED was specified, and the range [addr,addr+len)
exceeds that allowed for the address space of a process;
or, if MAP_FIXED was not specified and there is insufficient
room in the address space to effect the mapping.
