Your series modified the existing x86 custom arch_get_unmapped_area*()
functions, arm64 uses the generic implementation of those so I'd have to
either add custom implementations (which I can't imagine would be met
with great enthusiasm) or update the generic ones.  A generic
implementation seems reasonable and it looks like RISC-V would also end
up using it so while it's a bit invasive it does seem more sensible to
do the change there.
