[PATCH] mm: ia64 use expand_upwards
ia64 has expand_backing_store function for growing its Register Backing Store
vma upwards. But more complete code for this purpose is found in the
CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP part of mm/mmap.c. Uglify its #ifdefs further to provide
expand_upwards for ia64 as well as expand_stack for parisc.
The Register Backing Store vma should be marked VM_ACCOUNT. Implement the
intention of growing it only a page at a time, instead of passing an address
outside of the vma to handle_mm_fault, with unknown consequences.
