[PATCH 1/3] x86/mmap: properly account for stack randomization in mmap_base
From: Rik van RielWhen RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in a gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to take into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized. In other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space. Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack randomization and the stack guard gap into account. >From Daniel Micay's linux-hardened tree.
