[patch 02/10] powerpc: Use new layout for 64bit binaries

[Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>]

We currently place mmaps just below the stack on 32bit, but leave them
in the middle of the address space on 64bit:

00100000-00120000 r-xp 00100000 00:00 0                    [vdso]
10000000-10010000 r-xp 00000000 08:06 179534               /tmp/sleep
10010000-10020000 rw-p 00000000 08:06 179534               /tmp/sleep
10020000-10130000 rw-p 10020000 00:00 0                    [heap]
40000000000-40000030000 r-xp 00000000 08:06 440743         /lib64/ld-2.9.so
40000030000-40000040000 rw-p 00020000 08:06 440743         /lib64/ld-2.9.so
40000050000-400001f0000 r-xp 00000000 08:06 440671         /lib64/libc-2.9.so
400001f0000-40000200000 r--p 00190000 08:06 440671         /lib64/libc-2.9.so
40000200000-40000220000 rw-p 001a0000 08:06 440671         /lib64/libc-2.9.so
40000220000-40008230000 rw-p 40000220000 00:00 0 
fffffbc0000-fffffd10000 rw-p fffffeb0000 00:00 0           [stack]

Right now it isn't an issue, but at some stage we will run into mmap or
hugetlb allocation issues. Using the same layout as 32bit gives us a
some breathing room. This matches what x86-64 is doing too.
