[PATCH 2/2] SELinux: Do not apply MMAP_ZERO check to PROT_NONE mappings

[Roland McGrath]

An mmap with PROT_NONE is done specifically to ensure that an address
will fault.  So doing this on addresses below CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
is not seeking a "dangerous" operation.  Conversely, it's an attempt
to ensure robustness in case CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR or vm.mmap_min_addr
is less restrictive than the user wants to be.

Since we might let a low mapping exist at all without a check, we
add another check to prevent mprotect from granting access to such
a mapping without passing an MMAP_ZERO security check.
