Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt says:
norandmaps Don't use address space randomization. Equivalent
to echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
but it doesn't work because arch_rnd() which is used to randomize
mm->mmap_base returns a random value unconditionally. And as Kirill
pointed out, ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE is broken by the same reason.
Just shift the PF_RANDOMIZE check from arch_mmap_rnd() to arch_rnd().
