mm: new arch_remap() hook
Some architectures would like to be triggered when a memory area is moved through the mremap system call. This patch introduces a new arch_remap() mm hook which is placed in the path of mremap, and is called before the old area is unmapped (and the arch_unmap() hook is called).
