I was getting bored ;).

I see. But the test is probably useless. With 4K pages, TASK_SIZE_32 is
1UL << 32, so you can't have a u32 greater than this. So I'd argue that
the ABI compatibility here doesn't matter.

With 16K or 64K pages, TASK_SIZE_32 is slightly smaller but arm32 never
supported it.

What's the side-effect of dropping this check altogether?
