Subject: [PATCH 0/2] io_uring: Fix io_uring mmap() by using architecture-provided get_unmapped_area()

Fix io_uring on IA64 (and x86-32?) which was broken since commit
d808459b2e31 ("io_uring: Adjust mapping wrt architecture aliasing
requirements").
The fix is to switch back to the get_unmapped_area() which is provided by
each architecture.

Patch 1 switches io_uring back to use per-arch get_unmapped_area().
Patch 2 (for IA64) is an independend cleanup.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] io_uring: Fix io_uring mmap() by using architecture-provided get_unmapped_area()

The io_uring testcase is broken on IA-64 since commit d808459b2e31
("io_uring: Adjust mapping wrt architecture aliasing requirements").

The reason is, that this commit introduced an own architecture
independend get_unmapped_area() search algorithm which finds on IA-64 a
memory region which is outside of the regular memory region used for
shared userspace mappings and which can't be used on that platform
due to aliasing.

To avoid similar problems on IA-64 and other platforms in the future,
it's better to switch back to the architecture-provided
get_unmapped_area() function and adjust the needed input parameters
before the call. Beside fixing the issue, the function now becomes
easier to understand and maintain.

This patch has been successfully tested with the io_uring testcase on
physical x86-64, ppc64le, IA-64 and PA-RISC machines. On PA-RISC the LTP
mmmap testcases did not report any regressions.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ia64: mmap: Consider pgoff when searching for free mapping

IA64 is the only architecture which does not consider the pgoff value when
searching for a possible free memory region with vm_unmapped_area().
Adding this seems to have no negative side effect on IA64, so add it now
to make IA64 consistent with all other architectures.

Let's get this queued up - I marked it for stable as well, for 6.4.
Thanks for taking care of this!
