[PATCH v2 1/1] binfmt_elf: mseal address zero

[jeffxu]

From: Jeff Xu <jeffxu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some legacy SVr4 apps might depend on page on address zero
to be readable, however I can't find a reason that the page
ever becomes writeable, so seal it.

If there is a compain, we can make this configurable.
