From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: x86/elf: move 32 bit ELF_ET_DYN_BASE to 256MB

When setting up mmap_base, we take care to start the mmap base below the
maximum extent to which the stack will grow.  However, we take no such
precautions with PIE binaries, which are placed at 5/6 of TASK_SIZE plus a
random offset.  As a result, 32 bit PIE binaries can end up smack in the
middle of where the stack (which is randomized down) is supposed to go.

That problem can be avoided by putting the 32 bit ELF_ET_DYN_BASE at
256MB, which is a value linux-hardened and grsecurity have used for a long
time now without any known (to me) bug reports.
