mmap: arch_get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom up direction
This is more or less the generic variant of commit 41aacc1eea64 ("x86 get_unmapped_area: Access mmap_legacy_base through mm_struct member"). So effectively architectures which use an own arch_pick_mmap_layout() implementation but call the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() now can also randomize their mmap_base. All architectures which have an own arch_pick_mmap_layout() and call the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() (arm64, s390, tile) currently set mmap_base to TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE. This is also true for the generic arch_pick_mmap_layout() function. So this change is a no-op currently.
