FROMLIST: mm: mmap: Add new /proc tunable for mmap_base ASLR.
(cherry picked from commit https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/12/21/337) ASLR only uses as few as 8 bits to generate the random offset for the mmap base address on 32 bit architectures. This value was chosen to prevent a poorly chosen value from dividing the address space in such a way as to prevent large allocations. This may not be an issue on all platforms. Allow the specification of a minimum number of bits so that platforms desiring greater ASLR protection may determine where to place the trade-off.
