The test will fail as below on x86_64 with cpu la57 support (will skip if
no la57 support). Note, the test requries nr_hugepages to be set first.

addr_switch_hint is defined as DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW in the failed test (for
x86_64, DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW is defined as (1UL<<47) - pagesize) in 64 bit.

Before commit cc92882ee218 ("mm: drop hugetlb_get_unmapped_area{_*}
functions"), for x86_64 hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() is handled in arch code
arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c and addr is checked with map_address_hint_valid()
after align with 'addr &= huge_page_mask(h)' which is a round down way, and
it will fail the check because the addr is within the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW but
(addr + len) is above the DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW. So it wil go through the
hugetlb_get_unmmaped_area_top_down() to find an area within the
DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW.

After commit cc92882ee218 ("mm: drop hugetlb_get_unmapped_area{_*}
functions").  The addr hint for hugetlb_get_unmmaped_area() will be rounded
up and aligned to hugepage size with ALIGN() for all arches.  And after the
align, the addr will be above the default MAP_DEFAULT_WINDOW, and the
map_addresshint_valid() check will pass because both aligned addr (addr0)
and (addr + len) are above the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, and the aligned hint
address (0x800000000000) is returned as an suitable gap is found there,
in arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown().

To still cover the case that addr is within the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, and
addr + len is above the DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, make the addr hint one
hugepage lower, so that after the align it's still within DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW,
and the addr + len (2 hugepages) will be above DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW.

Wouldn't it be more deterministic to do the alignment/rounding ourselves?

(void *)(ALIGN_DOWN(addr_switch_hint - pagesize), hugepagesize)

Unfortunately we don't have an ALIGN_DOWN helper available yet.

We could just move the one in pkey-helpers.h into vm_util.h


But now I realize that, likely,

        .addr = (void *)(addr_switch_hint - hugepagesize),

would just work and be aligned?
