[PATCH v2 8/9] x86/mm: Care about shadow stack guard gap during placement

[Rick Edgecombe <rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com>]

When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
 1. That the new mapping isn’t placed in an any existing mappings guard
    gaps.
 2. That the new mapping isn’t placed such that any existing mappings
    are not in *its* guard gaps.

The long standing behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a
mmap() with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being
placed, mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then
the mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to
the adjacent VMA.

Now that the vm_flags is passed into the arch get_unmapped_area()'s, and
vm_unmapped_area() is ready to consider it, have VM_SHADOW_STACK's get
guard gap consideration for scenario 2.
