Re: [PATCH] arch: uapi: asm: mman.h: Let MADV_FREE have same value for all architectures

Hello Andrew:

Could you help check this patch, when you have time. And apply it if
possible.

I guess, this patch is a little urgent, since it changes uapi, if wait
a little longer, more user mode programs (e.g. libc) may use MADV_FREE
as various values.

Thanks.

For uapi, need try to let all macros have same value, and MADV_FREE is
added into main branch recently, so need redefine MADV_FREE for it.

At present, '8' can be shared with all architectures, so redefine it to
'8'.

Hello Chen,

Thanks for looking at this.
Feel free to add my sign.

OK, thanks.

Originally I sent the same patch like you sent (but later than yours).
Geert suggested to use same value for MADV_FREE, and Carlos confirmed
it and suggested more things (sorry, I forgot to Cc them in this mail).
