From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

When RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in
a gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to
take into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized.
In other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space.

Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack
randomization and the stack guard gap into account.

From Daniel Micay's linux-hardened tree.
