[RFC PATCH 4/6] mm: vm_unmapped_area() lookup function

[Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com>]

Implement vm_unmapped_area() using the rb_subtree_gap and highest_vm_end
information to look up for suitable virtual address space gaps.

struct vm_unmapped_area_info is used to define the desired allocation
request:
- lowest or highest possible address matching the remaining constraints
- desired gap length
- low/high address limits that the gap must fit into
- alignment mask and offset

Also update the generic arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown] functions to
make use of vm_unmapped_area() instead of implementing a brute force search.
