certainly looks fine to me, but please also add a .config to make it
default to 2. The reason is that a good portions of the overflows happen
on the heap and 99.9% of the Linux users do not run 1996-era glibc
anymore.
something like CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK=y, which would cause randomize_va_space
to default to 1, and if a user or distro disables it, it will default to
2.
