x86/mm: Fix VDSO and VVAR placement on 5-level paging machines
Yingcong has noticed that on the 5-level paging machine, VDSO and VVAR
VMAs are placed above the 47-bit border:
8000001a9000-8000001ad000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
8000001ad000-8000001af000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
This might confuse users who are not aware of 5-level paging and expect
all userspace addresses to be under the 47-bit border.
So far problem has only been triggered with ASLR disabled, although it
may also occur with ASLR enabled if the layout is randomized in a just
right way.
The problem happens due to custom placement for the VMAs in the VDSO
code: vdso_addr() tries to place them above the stack and checks the
result against TASK_SIZE_MAX, which is wrong. TASK_SIZE_MAX is set to
the 56-bit border on 5-level paging machines. Use DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW
instead.
