+mmap_protect_memory
I'm terrible at names, but something like mmap_minimum_addr would be a
little clearer at describing that it's a lower bound on mapping memory.
BTW, this is also an arch specific issue, those with disjoint kernel
and user memory space

The same condition that occurs when there is a system-wide OOM, yes.
Exclusive cpusets cannot be violated for such allocations outside of the
obvious GFP_ATOMIC exception.

If that fails, we can't allocate elsewhere because then we have taken

Well, I can't speak to the 'real' meaning of TIF_MEMDIE with authority,
but I can speak to the meaning of cpuset flags.
