+ *	vm_map_find_min() is a variant of vm_map_find() that takes an
+ *	additional parameter (min_addr) and treats the given address
+ *	(*addr) differently.  Specifically, it treats *addr as a hint
+ *	and not as the minimum address where the mapping is created.
+ *
+ *	This function works in two phases.  First, it tries to
+ *	allocate above the hint.  If that fails and the hint is
+ *	greater than min_addr, it performs a second pass, replacing
+ *	the hint with min_addr as the minimum address for the
+ *	allocation.
