From: Tom Spink <[email protected]>
This patch makes os_get_task_size locate the bottom of the address space,
as well as the top. This is for systems which put a lower limit on mmap
addresses. It works by manually scanning pages from zero onwards until a
valid page is found.
Because the bottom of the address space may not be zero, it's not sufficient
to assume the top of the address space is the size of the address space. The
size is the difference between the top address and bottom address.
[ [email protected] - Changed the name to reflect that this function
is supposed to return the top of the process address space, not its
size and changed the return value to reflect that. Also some minor
formatting changes ]
