Previously, pgd_find_hole_fallback assumed that if the build host's libc
had MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE defined that the address returned by mmap would
match the requested address. This is not a safe assumption for Linux
kernels prior to 4.17

Now, we always compare mmap's resultant address with the requested
address and no longer short-circuit based on MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE.
