[PATCH v6 14/14] riscv: Make mmap allocation top-down by default

From: Alexandre Ghiti <alex@ghiti.fr>
Date: 2019-08-08 06:33:28
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-riscv, lkml
Subsystem: risc-v architecture, the rest · Maintainers: Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Linus Torvalds

In order to avoid wasting user address space by using bottom-up mmap
allocation scheme, prefer top-down scheme when possible.

Before:
