[PATCH] mm/nommu.c: check read permission in validate_mmap_request()

[graff.yang]

From: Graff Yang <graff.yang@xxxxxxxxx>

According to the POSIX (1003.1-2008), the file shall have been opened
with read permission, regardless of the protection options specified.
The ltp test cases mmap06/07 need this.
