Agreed. I see very different definitions for TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE
and ELF_ET_DYN_BASE in all archs and I'm not a guru to make this patch
for all archs but everyone can see the idea. May be the signed int max
value is not suitable for users that need large brk allocations with
more than 2GB on 32bit, i.e. cur_task_unmapped_base is enough. Using
machines with this RAM size and more are already a common practice but
I'm not sure if this feature is so useful compared to the difficulties
to implement it for all archs.
