H A Dmmap.cdiff 32e4e6d5cbb0c0e427391635991fe65e17797af8 Tue Jul 11 00:49:54 CEST 2017 Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> mm/mmap.c: expand_downwards: don't require the gap if !vm_prev

expand_stack(vma) fails if address < stack_guard_gap even if there is no
vma->vm_prev. I don't think this makes sense, and we didn't do this
before the recent commit 1be7107fbe18 ("mm: larger stack guard gap,
between vmas").

We do not need a gap in this case, any address is fine as long as
security_mmap_addr() doesn't object.

This also simplifies the code, we know that address >= prev->vm_end and
thus underflow is not possible.
