Aneesh Kumar K.V e22807ee67 selftest/vm: fix map_fixed_noreplace test failure
[ Upstream commit f39c58008dee7ab5fc94c3f1995a21e886801df0 ]

On the latest RHEL the test fails due to executable mapped at 256MB
address

    Error: couldn't map the space we need for the test

Fix this by finding a free address using mmap instead of hardcoding
BASE_ADDRESS.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
