Subject: [PATCH v3] powerpc: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS

powerpc arch_mmap_rnd() currently uses hard-coded values - (23-PAGE_SHIFT) for
32-bit and (30-PAGE_SHIFT) for 64-bit, to generate the random offset
for the mmap base address for a ASLR ELF.

This patch makes sure that powerpc mmap arch_mmap_rnd() implementation
is similar to other ARCHs (like x86, arm64) and uses mmap_rnd_bits
and helpers to generate the mmap address randomization.

The maximum and minimum randomization range values represent
a compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding
address-space fragmentation.

Using the Kconfig option and suitable /proc tunable, platform
developers may choose where to place this compromise.

Also this patch keeps the default values as new minimums.

* Changes since v2:
v2 can be seen here (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9551509/)
    - Changed a few minimum and maximum randomization ranges as per Michael's suggestion.
    - Corrected Kees's email address in the Reviewed-by line.
    - Added further comments in kconfig to explain how the address ranges were worked out.

* Changes since v1:
v1 can be seen here (https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2017-February/153594.html)
    - No functional change in this patch.
    - Dropped PATCH 2/2 from v1 as recommended by Kees Cook.
