Description
- Prior to this update, a bug in the kernel prevented executables from starting
if the maximum process stack size (rlimit_stack) was set to a value below
approximately 4 MB. This update fixes the search for unmapped address ranges
(suitable gap) in unmapped_area() and unmapped_area_topdown() by ensuring that
the gap_end is always larger than gap_start. As a result, executables can be
started with a limited process stack size as expected. (BZ#1466138)
