Stop providing the possibility to override the address space using
set_fs() now that there is no need for that any more.

You don't need to test size == 0 anymore. It used to be necessary because
of the 'size - 1', as size is unsigned.

Now you can directly do

	return size <= TASK_SIZE_MAX - addr;

If size is 0, this will always be true (because you already know that addr
is not >= TASK_SIZE_MAX

True.  What do you think of Linus' comment about always using the
ppc32 version on ppc64 as well with this?

I have nothing against it. That's only adding a substract, all args are already in registers so that will be in the noise for a modern CPU.


i.e. something like this folded in:
