Subject: [PATCH 12/32] linux-user: Fix 32-on-64 mmap for x86_64

When running a 32 bit guest on a 64 bit host, we can run into trouble while
calling the host's mmap() because it could potentially give us a 64 bit
return value which the guest can't interpret.

There are 2 ways of dealing with this:

1) Only do MAP_FIXED mmap calls and implement our own vm management in QEMU
  2) Tell the kernel that we only want mappings in the lower 32 bits

Way 1 is very involved and hard to do. It's been advocated forever now but
nobody sat down to actually implement it.

Way 2 is easy. It's what this patch does. However, it only works on x86_64
because that's the only platform implementing the MAP_32BIT flag. Since most
people are on x86_64 though, I think it's a good enough compromise for now
though
