Fix 32-bit compat_sys_mmap() mapping VMA over 4Gb in 64-bit binaries

Introduced new bases for compat syscalls in mm_struct:
mmap_compat_base and mmap_compat_legacy_base for top-down and
bottom-up allocations accordingly.
Taught arch_get_unmapped_area{,_topdown}() to use the new mmap_bases
in compat syscalls for high/low limits in vm_unmapped_area().
I discovered that bug on ZDTM tests for compat 32-bit C/R.
Working compat sys_mmap() in 64-bit binaries is really needed for that
purpose, as 32-bit applications are restored from 64-bit CRIU binary.
Again that changelog sucks.
Explain the problem/bug first. Then explain the way to fix it and do not
tell fairy tales about what you did without explaing the bug in the first
place.
Documentation....SubittingPatches explains that very well.
Rewrote changelog.

Sigh. How is a user supposed to decode this?
This allows 64bit applications to invoke syscalls in 64bit and
32bit mode. Required for ....

Can you please find a solution which does not create that ifdef horror in
the code? Just a few accessors to those compat fields are required to do
that.
I'll try

Ditto
