Dmitry Safonov 6a0b41d1e2 x86/mm: Introduce arch_rnd() to compute 32/64 mmap random base
The compat (32bit) mmap() sycall issued by a 64-bit task results in a
mapping above 4GB. That's outside the compat mode address space and
prevents CRIU to restore 32bit processes from a 64bit application.

As a first step to address this, split out the address base randomizing
calculation from arch_mmap_rnd() into a helper function, which can be used
independent of mmap_ia32() based decisions.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
