thp: add thp_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()
When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap() needs to consider two things: 1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard gaps. 2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings are not in *its* guard gaps. The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap() with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed, mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the adjacent VMA. Add a THP implementations of the vm_flags variant of get_unmapped_area(). Future changes will call this from mmap.c in the do_mmap() path to allow shadow stacks to be placed with consideration taken for the start guard gap. Shadow stack memory is always private and anonymous and so special guard gap logic is not needed in a lot of caseis, but it can be mapped by THP, so needs to be handled.
