Aligned 'addr'? Or 'len'? Both?

We would have problem with checking aligned addr. I steped it in hugetlb
case:

  - User asks for mmap((1UL << 47) - PAGE_SIZE, 2 << 20, MAP_HUGETLB);

  - On 4-level paging machine this gives us invalid hint address as
    'TASK_SIZE - len' is more than 'addr'. Goto get_unmapped_area.

  - On 5-level paging machine hint address gets rounded up to next 2MB
    boundary that is exactly 1UL << 47 and we happily allocate from full
    address space which may lead to trouble.
