How about replacing BIT(VA_BITS-1) to DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW to make the code
more general.

Same here.

What about not setting the upper bound as x86/arm/powerpc as [1] did?
In this case, user space can directly pass a constant hint address >
BIT(47) to get a mapping in sv57. If you want this, this code also allows
user-space to pass any address larger than TASK_SIZE. You should also
limit the mmap_base to (base) + TASK_SIZE - DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW.
I’m also aware of the rnd_gap if it is not 0, then we will not get
address mapped to VA_USER_SV39 - rnd_gap.
