[Impact]
32-bit programs on x86 are not mapped randomly anymore since mmapped files are
now PMD-aligned.
[Test case]
qa-regression-testing ./test-kernel-security -k 021_aslr_dapper_libs
Also, tested with 021_aslr_dapper_mmap.
[Potential regression]
Programs may fail to load or to allocate memory or access mmapped
databases, and others.
[Extra testing]
This was boot tested on x86, demonstrating that programs necessary to boot
still work. Also, a 32-bit program allocating 2GiB succeeded.
