Excerpts from Christophe Leroy's message of December 9, 2021 3:18 am:
> Unlike most architectures, powerpc can only define at runtime
> if it is going to use the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() or not.
>
> Today, powerpc has a copy of the generic arch_get_unmapped_area()
> because when selection HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA the generic
> arch_get_unmapped_area() is not available.
>
> Rename it generic_get_unmapped_area() and make it independent of
> HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA.
>
> Do the same for arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() versus
> HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA_TOPDOWN.
>
> Do the same for hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() versus
> HAVE_ARCH_HUGETLB_UNMAPPED_AREA.
