We don't init addr_limit correctly for 32 bit applications. So default to using
mm->task_size for boundary condition checking. We use addr_limit to only control
free space search. This makes sure that we do the right thing with 32 bit
applications.
We should consolidate the usage of TASK_SIZE/mm->task_size and
mm->context.addr_limit later.
This partially reverts commit fbfef9027c (powerpc/mm: Switch some
TASK_SIZE checks to use mm_context addr_limit).

Not all user space application is ready to handle wide addresses. It's
known that at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to
encode their information. It collides with valid pointers with 512TB
addresses and leads to crashes.
To mitigate this, we are not going to allocate virtual address space
above 128TB by default.
But userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by
specifying hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 128TB.
If hint address set above 128TB, but MAP_FIXED is not specified, we try
to look for unmapped area by specified address. If it's already
occupied, we look for unmapped area in *full* address space, rather than
from 128TB window.
This approach helps to easily make application's memory allocator aware
about large address space without manually tracking allocated virtual
address space.
This is going to be a per mmap decision. ie, we can have some mmaps with
larger addresses and other that do not.
A sample memory layout looks like:

Some archs like ppc64 need to do special things when flushing tlb for
hugepage. Add a new helper to flush hugetlb tlb range. This helps us to
avoid flushing the entire tlb mapping for the pid.
