Some applications rely on placing data in free bits addresses allocated
by mmap. Various architectures (eg. x86, arm64, powerpc) restrict the
address returned by mmap to be less than the 48-bit address space,
unless the hint address uses more than 47 bits (the 48th bit is reserved
for the kernel ad
