Seems like a small waste to have all call sites now need to push an
additional @mm argument onto the stack just to figure out what function
to call.

This seems small enough to be amenable to a static inline, but that
would require exporting the arch calls which might be painful.

Would it not be possible to drop the @mm argument and just reference
current->mm internal to this function? Just call this funcion
current_get_unmapped_area()?

Otherwise looks like a useful change to me.
