hugetlbfs: get unmapped area below TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE for hugetlbfs



In a 32-bit program, running on arm64 architecture.  When the address
space below mmap base is completely exhausted, shmat() for huge pages will
return ENOMEM, but shmat() for normal pages can still success on no-legacy
mode.  This seems not fair.

For normal pages, the calling trace of get_unmapped_area() is:

	=> mm->get_unmapped_area()
	if on legacy mode,
		=> arch_get_unmapped_area()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()
	if on no-legacy mode,
		=> arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()

For huge pages, the calling trace of get_unmapped_area() is:

	=> file->f_op->get_unmapped_area()
		=> hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
			=> vm_unmapped_area()

To solve this issue, we only need to make hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() take
the same way as mm->get_unmapped_area().  Add *bottomup() and *topdown()
for hugetlbfs, and check current mm->get_unmapped_area() to decide which
one to use.  If mm->get_unmapped_area is equal to
arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() calls
topdown routine, otherwise calls bottomup routine.
