I just send out patch v2, which uses mm->task_size rather than
TASK_SIZE_MAX.  Some non-x86 architectures do not define
TASK_SIZE_MAX, but do make TASK_SIZE depend on the current task.  So I
feel it would be better to refer to the mm struct to obtain the needed
address space limit information rather than TASK_SIZE[_MAX], which can
depend on current.
