[PATCH 6/8] elf: Allow arch to tweak initial mmap prot flags

From: Dave Martin
Date: Fri May 24 2019 - 06:29:38 EST


An arch may want to tweak the mmap prot flags for an ELF
executable's initial mappings. For example, arm64 is going to need
to add PROT_BTI_GUARDED for executable pages in an ELF process
whose executable is marked as using Branch Target Identification
(an ARMv8.5-A control flow integrity feature).

So that this can be done in a generic way, add a hook
arch_elf_adjust_prot() to modify the prot flags as desired: arches
can select CONFIG_HAVE_ELF_PROT and implement their own backend
where necessary.

By default, leave the prot flags unchanged.
