Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> says:

There have been a couple of reports that using the hint address to
restrict the address returned by mmap hint address has caused issues in
applications. A different solution for restricting addresses returned by
mmap is necessary to avoid breakages.

[Palmer: This also just wasn't doing the right thing in the first place,
as it didn't handle the sv39 cases we were trying to deal with.]

* b4-shazam-merge:
  riscv: mm: Do not restrict mmap address based on hint
  riscv: selftests: Remove mmap hint address checks
  Revert "RISC-V: mm: Document mmap changes"
