[PATCH 3/3] mm, thp: make mapping address of PIC binaries THP align

From: Rongwei Wang
Date: Sat Oct 09 2021 - 05:27:14 EST


For binaries that are compiled with '--pie -fPIC' and with LOAD
alignment smaller than 2M (typically 4K, 64K), the load address
is least likely to be 2M aligned.

This changes the maximum_alignment of such binaries to 2M to
facilitate file THP for .text section as far as possible.
