Subject: x86: Fix norandmaps/ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

commit 47ac5484fd961420e5ec0bb5b972fde381f57365 upstream.

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().
