[PATCH 0/3] riscv: mm: Use hint address in mmap if available

[Charlie Jenkins]

On riscv, mmap currently returns an address from the largest address
space that can fit entirely inside of the hint address. This makes it
such that the hint address is almost never returned. This patch raises
the mappable area up to and including the hint address. This allows mmap
to often return the hint address, which allows a performance improvement
over searching for a valid address as well as making the behavior more
similar to other architectures.
