Liam R. Howlett 7e6631f782 mm/mmap: regression fix for unmapped_area{_topdown} 
commit 58c5d0d6d5 upstream.

The maple tree limits the gap returned to a window that specifically fits
what was asked.  This may not be optimal in the case of switching search
directions or a gap that does not satisfy the requested space for other
reasons.  Fix the search by retrying the operation and limiting the search
window in the rare occasion that a conflict occurs.
