Commit a626ca6a6564 ("vm: fix vm_pgoff wrap in stack expansion") fixed
the case of an expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you had
downward stack expansion.  But there was another case where IA64 and
PA-RISC expand mappings: upward expansion.

This fixes that case too.

On April 12th you asked "Guys, can you think of any other thing
that might expand a mapping?": this is the only one I thought of.
