[PATCH 4/7] FDPIC: Respect PT_GNU_STACK exec protection markings when creating NOMMU stack

[David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>]

From: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

The current code will load the stack size and protection markings, but then
only use the markings in the MMU code path.  The NOMMU code path always passes
PROT_EXEC to the mmap() call.  While this doesn't matter to most people whilst
the code is running, it will cause a pointless icache flush when starting every
FDPIC application.  Typically this icache flush will be of a region on the
order of 128KB in size, or may be the entire icache, depending on the
facilities available on the CPU.

In the case where the arch default behaviour seems to be desired
(EXSTACK_DEFAULT), we probe VM_STACK_FLAGS for VM_EXEC to determine whether we
should be setting PROT_EXEC or not.

For arches that support an MPU (Memory Protection Unit - an MMU without the
virtual mapping capability), setting PROT_EXEC or not will make an important
difference.

It should be noted that this change also affects the executability of the brk
region, since ELF-FDPIC has that share with the stack.  However, this is
probably irrelevant as NOMMU programs aren't likely to use the brk region,
preferring instead allocation via mmap().
