VM_IOREMAP is used to access hardware through a mechanism called
I/O mapped memory. Android binder is a IPC machanism which will
not access I/O memory.
And VM_IOREMAP has alignment requiement which may not needed in
binder.
__get_vm_area_node()
{
...
if (flags & VM_IOREMAP)
align = 1ul << clamp_t(int, fls_long(size),
PAGE_SHIFT, IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER);
...
}
This patch will save some kernel vm area, especially for 32bit os.
In 32bit OS, kernel vm area is only 240MB. We may got below
error when launching a app:
