3.16.70-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.ku...@linux.ibm.com>
commit 3b4d07d2674f6b4a9281031f99d1f7efd325b16d upstream.
When doing top-down search the low_limit is not PAGE_SIZE but rather
max(PAGE_SIZE, mmap_min_addr). This handle cases in which mmap_min_addr >
PAGE_SIZE.
Fixes: fba2369e6ceb ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on powerpc architecture")
