I agree, this change does not make sense for compat mode. Compat mode
should never return an address that is greater than 2^32, but this
change allows that.

That is not the case. I documented this behavior and reasoning in
Documentation/arch/riscv/vm-layout.rst in the "Userspace VAs" section.

I can reiterate here though. The hint address to mmap (defined here as
"addr") is the maximum userspace address that mmap should provide. What
you are describing is a minimum. The purpose of this change was to allow
applications that are not compatible with a larger virtual address (such
as applications like Java that use the upper bits of the VA to store
data) to have a consistent way of specifying how many bits they would
like to be left free in the VA. This requires to take the next lowest
address space to guaruntee that all of the most-significant bits left
clear in hint address do not end up populated in the virtual address
returned by mmap.
