The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't specified. In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774 So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.
