The comment in there used to be true, but these days do_brk() does
the arch-specific check that covers what we open-coded here.  So we
can use sys_brk() just fine, only need to do force_successful_syscall_return()
after it.

See commit 3a459756810912d2c2bf188cef566af255936b4d - that's when the
checks in do_brk() had been originally added.
