brk: check lower bound properly

The check in sys_brk() on minimum value the brk might have must take 
CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK setting into account. When this option is turned on 
(i.e. we support ancient legacy binaries, e.g. libc5-linked stuff), the 
lower bound on brk value is mm->end_code, otherwise the brk start is 
allowed to be arbitrarily shifted.

Thanks a lot for verifying, Geert.

So, I assume the proper way to handle this now is you dropping it from 
your m68k tree, and Andrew taking it through -mm.

Thanks,
