commit f4cb767d76cf7ee72f97dd76f6cfa6c76a5edc89 upstream
Trinity gets kernel BUG at mm/mmap.c:1963! in about 3 minutes of
mmap testing. That's the VM_BUG_ON(gap_end < gap_start) at the
end of unmapped_area_topdown(). Linus points out how MAP_FIXED
(which does not have to respect our stack guard gap intentions)
could result in gap_end below gap_start there. Fix that, and
the similar case in its alternative, unmapped_area().

Fixes: 1be7107fbe18 ("mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas")
