arm64: mm: Introduce DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW
We wish to introduce a 52-bit virtual address space for userspace but maintain compatibility with software that assumes the maximum VA space size is 48 bit. In order to achieve this, on 52-bit VA systems, we make mmap behave as if it were running on a 48-bit VA system (unless userspace explicitly requests a VA where addr[51:48] != 0). On a system running a 52-bit userspace we need TASK_SIZE to represent the 52-bit limit as it is used in various places to distinguish between kernelspace and userspace addresses. Thus we need a new limit for mmap, stack, ELF loader and EFI (which uses TTBR0) to represent the non-extended VA space. This patch introduces DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW and DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW_64 and switches the appropriate logic to use that instead of TASK_SIZE.
