[SPARC64]: Top-down address space allocation for 32-bit tasks.
Currently allocations are very constrained for 32-bit processes. It grows down-up from 0x70000000 to 0xf0000000 which gives about 2GB of stack + dynamic mmap() space. So support the top-down method, and we need to override the generic helper function in order to deal with D-cache coloring. With these changes I was able to squeeze out a mmap() just over 3.6GB in size in a 32-bit process. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
