    mm: vm_unmapped_area() lookup function · db4fbfb9
    Michel Lespinasse 提交于
    Implement vm_unmapped_area() using the rb_subtree_gap and highest_vm_end
    information to look up for suitable virtual address space gaps.
    
    struct vm_unmapped_area_info is used to define the desired allocation
    request:
     - lowest or highest possible address matching the remaining constraints
     - desired gap length
     - low/high address limits that the gap must fit into
     - alignment mask and offset
    
    Also update the generic arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown] functions to make
    use of vm_unmapped_area() instead of implementing a brute force search.
