Currently on nommu arch mmap(),mremap() and munmap() doesn't do page_align()
which is incorrect and not consist with mmu arch.
This patch fix it.


Can you explain this fully please?  What was the user-observeable
behaviour before the patch, and after?

And some input from nommu maintainers would be nice.

Its not obvious to me that there is a problem here. Are there
any issues caused by the current behavior that this fixes?

Regards
Greg
